[Pdl-porters] SciPDL Yosemite Macs

Dear Porters,

I have made a new version (v2.5) of the SciPDL kitchen-sink binary installer for Yosemite Macs (built with perl 5.18 and PDL 2.007):

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2148080/SciPDL-v2.5-Yosemite.zip

(I kind of had too, since I upgraded my OS a few days ago!).

***Can people with OS X 10.10 Macs test this and let me if it works?*** If so I will do a new official version when PDL 2.008 comes out this month and we can put it on pdl.perl.org. Also I am happy to try and include additional packages.

Matt - I am happy to take back ownership of the pumpkin of this, I feel I need the occasional geeky distraction from my day job :-), is that alright with you?

best,

Karl

Hi Karl,

Thanks for the new update, and I'd be happy with you taking back the
installer maintenance!

Happy new year,

Matt

Hi Karl,

On a relatively clean virtual machine that just got upgraded to Yosemite, install goes smoothly but when starting the pdl shell I get the following:

<snip>
ReadLines, NiceSlice, MultiLines enabled
Undefined subroutine &Term::ReadLine::Gnu::XS::ornaments called at /Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Term/ReadLine/Gnu.pm line 474.

and then it exits.

I have verified that there is a 'sub ornaments' in Gnu/XS.pm. Haven't had time to play with it more.

best,
Derek

Hi Derek

That's a bit odd, as you say the subroutine IS defined in the XS.pm file loaded.

I am wondering if this is triggered by something funny in your ~/.perldlrc file? Does

perl -e 'use PDL'

work?

Hi Karl,

Yes, PDL itself works fine.

$ perl -MPDL -E 'say xvals(5);'
[0 1 2 3 4]

The error is on line 237 of perldl:

$PERDL::TERM = Term::ReadLine->new('perlDL', \*STDIN, \*STDOUT);

And calling that from the command line triggers the same error:

perl -MTerm::ReadLine -E 'Term::ReadLine->new('blargh',\*STDIN,\*STDOUT);'
Undefined subroutine &Term::ReadLine::Gnu::XS::ornaments called at /Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Term/ReadLine/Gnu.pm line 474.

It correctly installed Term::ReadLine and Term::ReadLine::Gnu:

perl -MTerm::ReadLine -wE 'say "$Term::ReadLine::VERSION\n$Term::ReadLine::Gnu::VERSION\n";'
1.12
1.25

The only thing I can see is that a new install of OSX has Apple's broken libreadline.dylib, and the Gnu.bundle that comes with this version of SciPDL points to something in your home directory:

otool -L /Libarary/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2leel/auto/Term/ReadLine/Gnu/Gnu.bundle
Gnu.bundle:
/Users/karl/Downloads/tmp1/lib/libreadline.6.dylib (compatibility version 6.0.0, current version 6.3.0)
/usr/lib/libncurses.5.4.dylib (compatibility version 5.4.0, current version 5.4.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1213.0.0)

Maybe that's a red herring, maybe not.

(FWIW, that Term::ReadLine->new command works just fine on my regular machine, it's only the clean VM that is having the problem).

Hi Derek,

Not a red herring at all - that is exactly what I needed to know!

Looks like I missed a dynamic library in my static build

Try this version:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2148080/SciPDL-v2.6-Yosemite.zip

hopefully that will fix the issue.

PDL-porters: please send requests for additional things, e.g. TriD, PLplot...

That's better! perldl shell starts up just fine.

PGPLOT did not work at first but I updated my XQuartz from 2.7.5 to 2.7.7 and that did the trick. It was complaining about libpng15 not being compatible with what was in /opt/X11/lib/libpng … I think it was XQuartz 2.7.6 that included a libpng update.

As far as additional things, if it's not too much work it seems like making sure all of the demos work would be a great goal to work towards. I guess that would require POGL, gnuplot, PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot, & Prima. I guess it would not require PLplot, nobody ever wrote a PLplot demo for PDL.

I'm happy to keep testing things out.

cheers,
Derek
