2.2.1 Prerequisites for building PyQwt on POSIX
Recent versions of the following software should be installed on your system:
- Python.
PyQwt-3.10.tar.gz is compatible with Python-2.3.x, Python-2.2.x, and probably
with Python-2.1.x.
Earlier versions of Python are not supported.
- Qt.
PyQwt-3.10.tar.gz is compatible with Qt-3.2.x, Qt-3.1.x, Qt-3.0.x, Qt-2.3.1 and
Qt-2.3.0.
Earlier versions of Qt are not supported.
- sip-x11-gpl-3.10.tar.gz.
PyQwt-3.10.tar.gz is compatible with sip-4.0, -3.10, and -3.9, but the most
recent version gets most testing.
You may also try a snapshot at your own risk.
- PyQt-x11-gpl-3.10.tar.gz.
PyQwt-3.10.tar.gz is compatible with PyQt-3.10 and -3.9, but the most recent
version gets most testing.
You may also try a snapshot at your own risk.
- Read README to check out bug fixes and upgrades.
Note:
You must install sip and PyQt with the 'configure.py' script instead of the
deprecated 'build.py' script.
To exploit the full power of PyQwt's plot widget, you should install at
least one the Numerical Python extensions:
Numeric
or its successor
numarray.
I am using Numeric-23.1.tar.gz and numarray-0.8.tar.gz.
Versions of Numeric later than 21.0 are supported.
Numarray is newer and therefore less stable than Numeric, so get the latest!
The source package PyQwt-3.10.tar.gz contains a version the Qwt library based
on version 4.2.0rc2.
