mx linux 21.3
I am trying to install vimiv:
https://github.com/karlch/vimiv. One of the dependencies is python-gobject. When i try
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install python-gobject
it shows
Code: Select all
E: unable to locate package python-gobject
But i installed vimiv on another computer running mx 21.3 and i don't think i ran into this problem, vimiv works fine on that computer
what am I missing?

"python-gobject" is an Ubuntu specific package and you won't find it in any of our repositories. On your other computer, you must first have enabled an Ubuntu family ppa which can have disastrous effects in MX. See here:

Not in my repositories I build that as well.
python-gobject

You can install it with pip

Also, you are trying to install depreciated version.
New, current version is here:
https://github.com/karlch/vimiv-qt
And here you have instructions how to install it:
https://karlch.github.io/vimiv-qt/docum ... stall.html
Looking at dependencies, you don't have to worry about "python-gobject"
https://karlch.github.io/vimiv-qt/docum ... pendencies
There is a problem with: "python3-piexif" on Debian but it is optional anyway

thanks. Given what you say, i feel less certain that i installed python-gobject on the other computer, i just assumed i did becuase vimiv is working on it. How can i check if i did install it? (because i would like to undo that mistake)

@gimcrack
I searched our repos in the default, AHS and KDE versions using both MXPI and Synaptic and it could not be located.. To back up your statement, you should really post your QSI.

I can't help you in this case.
But did you also try to install it this way:
Code: Select all
pip install --user vimiv
pip install --user git+https://github.com/karlch/vimiv-qt/
This should work. It will not works system wide, but at least you would get it to work until you figure out the rest

This may be quite a stretch and not possible in your case if your two installs and setups are (and need to be) different. Of course only in case it comes out, your install on first computer is not compromised with some 'buntus PPA's
So, you could create snapshot on computer where vimiv works, then use that snapshot to install it on computer where vimiv don't work. As first step, after creating live USB stick, I would run it live on second computer and
test it, to see, that it works on second one. Just a thought

Not sure who you replied this to, but if you replied to me regarding these commands:
Code: Select all
pip install --user vimiv
pip install --user git+https://github.com/karlch/vimiv-qt/
Based on what I have read on vimiv home page, this is QT version, that does not uses python-gobject.
Also, when installing something with "pip" you are installing python library, part of python code. You are this way not adding any Ubuntu PPA repository, which could cause your debian libraries to get messed up with different system versions.
Although, you could of course for extra security first create python virtual environment and then run upper two lines of code inside it. But this is probably too complicated if you never did it before and you are not familiar with python environment.
I think, you should be safe to run those two commands. But just in case, create MX-snapshot first.

It's entirely possible that "python-gobject" was imported as a dependency by Signal which would explain why you don't remember specifically installing it on this machine. However, it is clear that you did not enable a ppa.

Which means, (just in case you are noob like me) your system on first computer is OK.

It was in Debian 10, and a python2 GNOME related package, but was dropped for 11 when python2 reached end-of-life.
From the installation directions for vimv-qt:
Installing the following packages should pull in all necessary dependencies for building and running vimiv-qt.
Debian/Ubuntu:
python3-pyqt5
python3-pyqt5.qtsvg (optional)
python3-setuptools
python3-dev (for building the C extension)
python3-piexif (not available in Bullseye, but is in bullseye-backports…)

(i see what you mean, ie the dependencies listed at the very bottom of this page:
https://karlch.github.io/vimiv-qt/docum ... stall.html)
when running
i was still seeing
Code: Select all
c-extension/manipulate.c:7:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
based on what i read here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/215 ... -directory, i ran
that solved the existing problem (i had previously installed python-dev because i was looking at the dependencies listed on the old github page:
https://github.com/karlch/vimiv)
now i get a different error:
Code: Select all
creating /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages
error: could not create '/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages': Permission denied
make: *** [Makefile:32: install] Error 1
i read that i should not do sudo. Should i change ownership (chown)?

Again, have you tried:
Code: Select all
pip install --user vimiv
pip install --user git+https://github.com/karlch/vimiv-qt/

About your missing "Python.h" header file, if you look at the list I posted, it does have python3-dev. I don't know why you didn't follow it.

yep, thanks. I noticed the issue before i saw your post and i wanted to spell it out so it's clear that python.h header issue is related to python3-dev, just in case others see this
