在Ubuntu下编译Cx-Freeze

Question

For the entire day I have been attempting to compile cx-Freeze under Ubuntu 14.04 and had no luck. So I gave up and decided to ask experts here.

What I have

1. Ubuntu 14.04
2. Python 3.4
3. python-dev, python3-dev, python3.4-dev installed (I know this common issue)
4. Sources of cx-Freeze 4.3.3

I tried two ways:

1. install from the sources
2. install by pip

Install from the sources

sudo python3 setup.py install

What I got

a lot of

MyPath/cx_Freeze-4.3.3/source/bases/Console.c:24: undefined reference to `PyErr_Print'
MyPath/cx_Freeze-4.3.3/source/bases/Console.c:24: undefined reference to `Py_FatalError'

and then

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'i686-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

---

Install by pip

sudo pip3 install cx-Freeze

What I got

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

error: command 'i686-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

So, I expect you to help me with this issue and gonna be very thankful:)

In setup.py string

if not vars.get("Py_ENABLE_SHARED", 0):

From cx_freeze/issues

Download

You need to download the source code

For python 3.3 and 3.4:

1. sudo apt-get install python3-dev

2. sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

3. Open setup.py and change the line

   if not vars.get("Py_ENABLE_SHARED", 0):

   to

   if True:

4. python3 setup.py build

5. sudo python3 setup.py install

For python 2.7:

1. sudo apt-get install python-dev

2. sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

3. Open setup.py and change the line

   if not vars.get("Py_ENABLE_SHARED", 0):

   to

   if True:

4. python setup.py build

5. sudo python setup.py install

Answer 3

GriMel's answer worked for me. Until cx_freeze releases an update for this, I'm including a set of steps that you can do to get this working using GriMels' solution.

# create and activate virtualenv (as desired)
virtualenv envs/test_cxfreeze
. ./envs/test_cxfreeze/bin/activate

# download cxfreeze; do not install yet 
mkdir src/ 
pip install --download=./src/ cx-freeze
tar zxvf ./src/cx_Freeze-4.3.4.tar.gz -C ./src/

# fix bug in setup.py
vim src/cx_Freeze-4.3.4/setup.py
84c84
<             if True:
---
>             if not vars.get("Py_ENABLE_SHARED", 0):

# install cxfreeze
pip install ./src/cx_Freeze-4.3.4/

I've also opened up a bitbucket issue with what appears to be the source repo.

Answer 4

Looks like you might have a typo change

 sudo pip3 install cx-Freeze

to

 sudo pip3 install cx_Freeze
