How do i compile eXeLearning for Slackware?

logicalfuzz · 07-18-2009, 10:09 AM

I use Slackware 12.2 and am trying to download and use eXe authoring environment

The site lists Fedora and Ubuntu packages. So i am trying to compile it from source. However, no compile guide seems to be available.... Just a shot in the dark, i am trying to run setup.py with the following error:

Code:

bash-3.1$ ./setup.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./setup.py", line 6, in <module>
    from setuptools                 import setup
ImportError: No module named setuptools
bash-3.1$

I have already installed "setuptools" using sbopkg.
Can someone help me compile this?

Missing 'setuptools.py' > > pysetuptools / setuptools :
http://slackbuilds.org/repository/12.../pysetuptools/

And when 'pysetuptools' is installed,
you can continue with "exe" :

python setup.py build
# python setup.py install

... You will need this too :

PIL , pil ( python imaging lib )
http://slackbuilds.org/repository/12.2/development/pil/
and
zope.interface
http://slackbuilds.org/repository/12...ope.interface/

And 'exe' works.

Good luck !
