Bug Description
I'm trying to build Dexter on Fedora Rawhide and I'm getting error during "./setup.py build" stage:
+ ./setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./setup.py", line 99, in <module>
cmdclass=
File "/usr/lib/
__requires(
File "/usr/lib/
__add_
File "/usr/lib/
if __external_
File "/usr/lib/
path = __import_
File "/usr/lib64/
_init()
File "/usr/lib64/
_gtk.
RuntimeError: could not open display
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/
I'm getting the same error when running "./setup.py build" manually in console, but not when in gnome-terminal , so I suspect that setup.py needs to have DISPLAY set and X running to build.
yes, it does require it. I use that setup.py script for debian packaging, I do not support it for standard installation, so I can't help you with this, sorry.
