We do not install the C compiler on the server for disk optimization, and here is the problem:
I want to install the python "spur" package with buildout 2.3.1 , spur uses pycrypto, which requires a C compiler.
To avoid compilation, I installed rpm python-pycrypto (python-pycrypto-2.6-31.7.x86_64.rpm) on the (Suse 11SP2) server. I can check with 'pip freeze' that pycrypto is installed:
pip freeze lxml==2.1.2 mod-python==3.3.1 Numeric==24.2 numpy==1.3.0 pycrypto==2.6 pywbem==0.7.0 PyXML==0.8.4
However, when I run buildout, it still tries to build pycrypto with a C compiler that does not exist.
So, I added include-site-packages = true and allowed-eggs-from-site-packages = pycrypto to buildout.cfg, but they are not taken into account. I also tried to do the following:
python bootstrap.py --allow-site-packages bin/buildout
but that didn't help either.
What can I do to avoid compiling a package that has already been compiled and installed with rpm?
Here is buildout.cfg
