Mac OS X python 'import vigra' error

Question

Hi guys,

I want to use vigra under Mac OS X 10.6.4. So I installed all dependencies with Macpotrs. Everything compiled and I could install vigra too. But when I try to import vigra, then I get a 'Segmentation fault'. Do someone know how to solve this problem? Here the Mac OS X error report:

Answer 1

Does your numpy work well? Did you run its tests? Its installation notes remind of ABI mismatches and right compiler choice; probably a wrong choice might lead to a segfault. The crash happens near init_module_vigranumpycore; maybe it's not vigra yet.
