Problems with automatic pxd inclusion

[Joost Cassee]

Cython (0.9.6.13.1) allow pyx files to be placed in the package directory. When I do so, the accompanying pxd file is not found. An strace of cython shows it uses the package directory twice in building the path:

~/src$ strace cython package/module.pyx
...
stat64("/home/user/src/package/package/module.pxd", 0xbf8b1f48) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
...

On the other hand, if I name the module as in python I get a cython error:

~/src$ cython package.module.pyx
...
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/user/src/package.module.pyx'

On the other hand, an strace shows that the pxd file was found. :-)

Have you tried

    cython package/package.module.pyx

and naming the .pxd alike?

Hmm, I thought cython was changed to specifically allow
package/module.pyx naming? Anyway, I tried this but cython said

~/src$ cython package.module.pyx
...
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/home/user/src/package.module.pyx'

~/src$ strace cython package/package.module.pyx
...
stat64("/home/user/src/package/package/package/module.pxd", 0xbf9a3828)
= -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Regards,

Joost
