Hello all,
i am trying to install the python GPIO package for olinuxino a13 however i receive an error.
My python version on the board is Python v 2.7 and the error sounds like this :
source/pyA13.c:23:20: fatal error: Python.h no such file or directory compilation terinated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
It doesn't find the python.h file ...
I have also tried with an earlier version pyA13-0.1.7 and there i get another error:
source/gpio_lib.c:39:22: fatal error: gpio_lib.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
I am installing it like this..
#tar -zxvf pyA13-0.1.7.tar.gz
#cd pyA13-0.1.7
#sudo python setup.py install
also i checked this site

You probably need python-dev package
If not that, try google with
"python.h"

I tried installing the python dev package however i get errors :-[ i tried also with version 2.6...
dpkg -i python-dev_2.7.3-0ubuntu7_armhf.deb
(Reading database ... 55882 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace python-dev 2.7.3-0ubuntu7 (using python-dev_2.7.3-0ubuntu7_armhf.deb) ...

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-dev:
python-dev depends on python (= 2.7.3-0ubuntu7); however:
Version of python on system is 2.7.3~rc2-1.
python-dev depends on python2.7-dev (>= 2.7.3); however:
Package python2.7-dev is not installed.
dpkg: error processing python-dev (--install):

Processing triggers for man-db ...

Errors were encountered while processing:
python-dev
I freed all my memoryand reinstalled a fresh os and now when i am extrating the python dev it just says
processing triggers for man-db ...
errors were encountered while processing: python-dev
it says nothing about the nature of the errors.....
What is it???? ???
does anyone know how to install packages(like python dev) without dependency checking?
what linux image you are using?
the official Debian Linux image have inside pre-installed python https://www.olimex.com/wiki/Prebuilt_SD_card_images_running_debian#Official_Debian_images_by_Olimex
First of all thank you for the relpy! However i managed to solve the problem ;)
The idea is that i used the images
A13 Debian 2GB card image without XFCE4 with GCC, GPIO, WIFI, WTHERNET, UVC, Python, OpenCV
r18 and r17
I installed and reinstalled some of the images because i thought at first that the were not correctly installed or something happened during instalation, but the result was the same
With all the above images i had problems installing the a13 gpio package for python...
On the ones that didn't have python i installed python first
In the end i installed this image
A13 Advanced Debian 4GB card image with XFCE4, GCC, GPIO, WIFI, WTHERNET, UVC, Python, OpenCV;
And with this one i was able to install the package and test it with the blink program - and it worked 8)
