[Buildroot] Are these packages already present or easy to add?

[Jo]

Hi,

For my open-source project www.samplerbox.org, I think that using
Buildroot would be great (fast boot time, etc.).

The requirements for https://github.com/josephernest/SamplerBox  are:

* python-dev  (probably already there?)
* cython   (not needed on target, only on host)
* python-smbus    (present?)
* portaudio19-dev    (present?)
* https://github.com/superquadratic/rtmidi-python.git       (to be done...)
* http://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/git/pyaudio.git           (to be done...)

I imagine you are already busy on lots of projects, but if some of you
have skills to build  the missing packages or contribute to making a
Buildroot for SamplerBox, it would help me a lot.

I will happily donate for help :)

Best

Jo

 Buildroot doesn't have separate -dev packages, so it's just the python package.

 Peter Bouda just posted a patch to add it.

 That's part of i2c-tools.

 Just portaudio.

 Indeed these are to be done, but adding python packages is generally not hard.
Read the manual and look at some of the existing python-* packages for examples.

Dear Jo, Arnout.

There is a patch for python-smbus and as far as I know it is not committed
yet. <http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2015-March/122280.html>

I'm to busy to test it myself. All I have done is compile it successfully.

Regards, oli

[Buildroot] Are these packages already present or easy to add?

Dear Oli Vogt,

The patch you're pointing to is no longer needed. As Arnout said,
python-smbus is installed by the i2c-tools package, but the source code
of python-smbus is in i2c-tools.

The issue with the patch you're pointing to is that it was sharing
variables between python-smbus.mk and i2c-tools.mk, which is not
correct (relies on the assumption that i2c-tools.mk gets included
before python-smbus.mk, which is true because alphabetically they are
ordered properly, but the same strategy wouldn't work in the opposite
way).

Best regards,

Thomas
