Installation recommendations

Hi,

I am trying to install smc++. I don't have administrator privileges, so I am trying to install it locally.

I created a python virtual environment where I insatlled numpy. Then I downloaded installed following libraries locally:

Python-3.9.18.tar.xz

gmp-6.3.0.tar.xz

gsl-latest.tar.gz

mpfr-4.2.1.tar.xz

Like this

./configure --prefix=$HOME/local
       make
        make install

All of them, except mpfr, I install it like this:

./configure --prefix=$HOME/local --with-gmp=$HOME/local
make
make install

Finally I added them to my path like this:

export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=$HOME/local/include:$C_INCLUDE_PATH
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=$HOME/local/include:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

I donwloaded and tried to install smcc++ like this:

git clone https://github.com/popgenmethods/smcpp.git
python setup.py install

After several attempts (including switching Python versions), I am still encountering errors. The most recent one is

etup.py build: smcpp/_smcpp.cpp: At global scope:
smcpp/_smcpp.cpp:34397:18: warning: ‘PyObject* __Pyx_PyDict_GetItem(PyObject*, PyObject*)’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
34397 | static PyObject *__Pyx_PyDict_GetItem(PyObject d, PyObject key) {
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
error: command '/usr/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit code

Unfortunately, I also can't use Docker as I don't have administrator privileges.

Do you recommend using different versions of the following?

Python-3.9.18.tar.xz, gmp-6.3.0.tar.xz, gsl-latest.tar.gz, mpfr-4.2.1.tar.xz

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Eric

I solved this by installing the program in another cluster where most of the libraries can be load as modules.

I just had to install mpfr-4.2.1.tar.xz as I mentioned above and I used

pip install git+https://github.com/popgenmethods/smcpp

Thank you so much for posting this! Had it not been for your comments, I would not have managed to install smc++.

Thank you so much！ I solved my problem by using your script.
