Unable to install leven package using Python27 MingGW on Windows 10 collect2.exe error

Question

I'm trying to install the leven package ( https://pypi.python.org/pypi/leven/ ) using python 2.7.10, windows 10, and mingw. I'm getting the following error:

"collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status"

Any help on this would be greatly appreciate it. I've been trying to install this for days now. I've overcome several problems includying a previous collect2.exe error using this solution: Unable to Install pyslalib package using python2.7 / MINGW on Windows 10

However, after fixing that issue another error surged. Here is the error:

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

These errors are references to python core library ( libpython27.a from C:\\Python27\\libs ). Make sure:

1. it is exists and match your gcc architecture. These errors are often appear when you are using 32-bit gcc and 64-bit libraries.
2. I see you are using pexports to create this library, it may work wrong too, see http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msvc_and_mingw_dlls - it can add additional _ to all exported names and you need to strip it as described:

pexports python27.dll | sed "s/^_//" > python27.def

3. Python standard Windows distribution built with MSVC 2008 and linked to msvcr90.dll , when mingw-gcc linking binaries with msvcrt.dll - it can cause a lot of problems(crashes). You need to follow this guide to make your gcc link with msvcr90.dll
