Install mac : 1 error generated (error: '_GStaticAssertCompileTimeAssertion_0' declared as an array)

I'm trying to install kivy on mac OSX 10.11.2 for a couple of hours now.
What I did (as explained here: https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-osx.html):
$ brew install sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_ttf sdl2_mixer gstreamer
$ pip install -I Cython==0.23
$ USE_OSX_FRAMEWORKS=0 pip install kivy
The first two commands worked perfectly fine.
The last command give me this error:
16 warnings and 1 error generated.
error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit status 1
When I look above the only error I get is:
In file included from /usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.48.2/include/glib-2.0/glib/galloca.h:32:
/usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.48.2/include/glib-2.0/glib/gtypes.h:422:3: error: '_GStaticAssertCompileTimeAssertion_0' declared as an array with a negative size

Could you help me? Let me know if you need more info.
Thank you very much!

I had the same problem trying to install with CLI. It appears kivy installation with .app file worked. Follow this guide:
https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-osx.html
then you should be able to import kivy. But I am sorry I can't help you more with this issue ^^

Does anyone know how to compile Megahal on Ubuntu?

I have been trying to compile megahal for a few hours now and i dont seem to be getting anywhere. Has anyone had success with this?
http://megahal.alioth.debian.org/
I keep getting an error that says :

I have installed python via sudo apt-get and i have been over every thread that talks about "'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' but I have found no solution

You are getting these errors just because you don't have the python development headers installed. You can install it using following command
sudo apt-get install python-dev ( for python 2.x )
sudo apt-get install python3-dev ( for python 3 )

you need the python developer module "python-dev".this will help you
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 while installing eventlet
after upgrading to vivid 15.04 on ubuntu i couldn't compile the module anymore so i tried something else. Since in the main folder there is a directory named Megahal with a Makefile in it, i tried to compile from there. First you need to go to that directory.
cd /home/user/Downloads/megahal-9.1.1/Megahal/
you need to go where you unzipped the archive and there you can read the README file and start compiling.
perl Makefile.PL
i copied the missing files i was able to find to that folder and from there
make
make test
but this didn't work for me and afther that
make install
i had to do
sudo make install
and that is all. unfortunately for me i have a problem with perl i think.
I keep getting this error from the module "PL_thr_key" after i load it to the eggdrop. The eggdrop works normally except for the module. No module, no AI and no fun :(

Compilation issue ( cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-ip" )

I'm having trouble while compiling certain python modules. The setup fails with the following error:
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-ip"
error: Setup script exited with error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
I am on a shared system and do not have root access. So, I install the modules using:
easy_install --prefix=$HOME/local <module_dir>
I looked this up on google and SO but have found no concrete solution yet. From what I understand, it has to do something with the compiler settings/configuration.
I would really appreciate if you could guide me through the steps required to resolve this. I have encountered the same issue with several python modules(pygame, crypto, etc) while most others installed without any hiccups.
Thank You!

Installing PDQ on windows

I am trying to install "pretty damn quick", an analysis tool for Layered Queing networks.
However there seems to be a lot wrong with my system, and switching to Linux is not an option.
Here is what i tried to get the PDQ running:
First try: Python
I installed python2.7 and downloaded the PDQ for python distribution (its in the tarball in the python dir) :
C:\pdq\pdq42\python>python setup.py install
running install
running build
running build_ext
building 'pdq' extension
error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat
This error stems from the fact that i supposedly dont have a C-compiler. Even though typing g++ gives me:
C:\pdq\pdq42\python>g++ -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=g++
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=c:/rtools/gcc-4.6.3/bin/../libexec/gcc/i686-w64-mingw3
3/lto-wrapper.exe
Target: i686-w64-mingw32
...snipped...
This problem is somehow documented? So i tried going over to Perl. It said there that the compiler comes with Strawberry Perl. So I installed that. Dmake gave me a lot of trouble but in the end I managed to install it.
C:\pdq\pdq42\perl5>perl Makefile.PL

dmake: Error code 129, while making 'blib\arch\auto\pdq\pdq.dll'
Gives me new errors, that i cannot fix, since i cannot google them.
As the last resort i try out installing R, since this should work according to the documentation.
install.packages("c:\pdq\pdq_6.0-1.tar.gz",repos=NULL,type="source")
Warning: invalid package 'c:/pdq/pdq_6.0-1.tar.gz'
Error: ERROR: no packages specified
Warning messages:
1: running command '"C:/Programme/R/R-3.0.1/bin/i386/R" CMD INSTALL -l "C:\Programme\R\R-3.0.1\library" "c:/pdq/pdq_6.0-1.tar.gz"' had status 1
2: In install.packages("c:\pdq\pdq_6.0-1.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type = "source") :
installation of package ‘c:/pdq/pdq_6.0-1.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status
However in this case i don't even know where to start debugging this to get it going.
So I am seeking help from SO. My question is:
Where did I go wrong and what can I do to find additional information leading to identify the problem? I would really like to have PDQ installed.

Installing Stanford Parser's Python interface: error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 rake aborted

I'd like to install the stanford parser's python interface.
http://projects.csail.mit.edu/spatial/Stanford_Parser
When running rake setup to install jpype first, I keep ge
In file included from src/native/common/jp_reference.cpp:1:0:

Kompilierung beendet.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
rake aborted!
The error message is english-german-mixed. It says: heavy failure: jni.h: File or directory not found.
When I try to install the stanford-parser itself, the same thing happens.
Yes, I python-dev is already installed on my system.
I'm working on Ubuntu and with python2.7.

The error messages says you are missing jni.h.
You can use the search tool at http://packages.ubuntu.com to find which package provides the missing file:
For the most recent version of Ubuntu, Quantal (12.10), these packages provide the jni.h:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386/include/jni.h openjdk-7-jdk
Either openjdk or gcj will do; this page may help clarify the difference.

jni.h is the Java Native Interface header, so you will need to make sure you have Java installed. For Ubuntu there is a openjdk-6-jdk package which I've confirmed has the require file available.
