get kaa.metadata (mmpython) running on OS X

go into kaa/base and edit setup.py by changing (line 36) this extensions.append( Extension(‘shmmodule’, ['src/extensions/shmmodule.c']) ) to this #extensions.append( Extension(‘shmmodule’, ['src/extensions/shmmodule.c']) ) or use this diff: 36c36 < extensions.append( Extension(‘shmmodule’, ['src/extensions/shmmodule.c']) ) — > #extensions.append( Extension(‘shmmodule’, ['src/extensions/shmmodule.c']) ) until now the support for cdrom drives only works on Linux, so i disabled it on OS X. now go to kaa/metadata and edit setup.py: change this ext_modules = [ cdrom, ifoparser ] to #ext_modules = [ cdrom, ifoparser ] ext_modules = [ ifoparser ] and change this ext_modules = [ cdrom ] to #ext_modules = [ cdrom ] ext_modules = [ ] or use this diff: 58c58,59 < ext_modules = [ cdrom, ifoparser ] — > #ext_modules = [ cdrom, ifoparser ] > ext_modules = [ ifoparser ] 61c62,63 < ext_modules = [ cdrom ] — > #ext_modules = [ cdrom ] > ext_modules = [ ] now go back to kaa/base and install the kaa.base package: $ sudo python setup.py install now go to kaa/metadata and install the kaa.metadata package: $ sudo python setup.py install you may use a different python instance, like /opt/python24/bin/python or something else if you don’t wanna install kaa into the default python on OS X.
