Build failing in clang on macOS

[5nefarious]

I just nuked and recreated the conda environment and tried reinstalling dependencies through conda rather than pip. Everything works now. I'm not exactly sure why, but I'm sure it has more to do with my setup than anything in these repos.

@mosra I think it's safe to mark this issue as resolved. Thanks for your help (you too, @erikwijmans).

[mosra]

Oh no!

I guess it's because Mac is the last system ever to have /usr/bin/python default to Python 2? :D Totally random idea: can you try changing this line to be

NAMES python3 python

instead of just python (and then wiping out habitat-sim/build)? If that works, then we'll commit that to the sim repo.

Yeah, CMake and system python don't play nicely with each other due to system python still being 2.7 on a lot of systems (also true for ubuntu 16.04 systems). Our recommended way to build habitat-sim is in a conda/virtual/pyenv/etc environment as that'll pickup the correct version of python and will let you install without sudo.

[5nefarious]

@erikwijmans I am actually using a separate conda virtual environment for habitat. Maybe it's because Python 2.7 is installed at the system level?

@mosra I tried your suggestion and this time the build got a lot further. It failed here:

Do pip install numpy or pip install -r requirements.txt first

[erikwijmans]

@erikwijmans I am actually using a separate conda virtual environment for habitat. Maybe it's because Python 2.7 is installed at the system level?

Is the environment activated? i.e. if you do which python, what does it report?

[5nefarious]

@erikwijmans I did run pip install -r requirements.txt, as per the README. pip3 list gives the following packages:

Package          Version           
---------------- ------------------
attrs            19.1.0            
llvmlite         0.29.0            
numba            0.45.1            
numpy            1.17.2            
numpy-quaternion 2019.7.23.15.26.49
Pillow           6.1.0             
pip              19.1.1            
protobuf         3.9.1             
scipy            1.3.1             
setuptools       41.0.1            
six              1.12.0            
TBB              0.1               
tqdm             4.36.1            
wheel            0.33.4

which python returns /usr/bin/python. My conda environment called habitat is active.

[5nefarious]

On the other hand, which python3 gives /usr/local/bin/python3.

[erikwijmans]

Seems like something is off with your conda install. which python should return a path inside your conda environment. You should also be able to use just pip, not pip3.

[erikwijmans]

i.e.

> conda activate hsim
> which python
/Users/erikwijmans/miniconda3/envs/hsim/bin/python
> python --version
Python 3.7.4
> conda deactivate
> which python
/usr/bin/python
> python --version
Python 2.7.10

is how things behave on my system.

[mosra]

The above-proposed change was merged into Habitat as facebookresearch/habitat-sim#246.

@5nefarious is there anything left to be done regarding this issue?

[mosra]

Happy to hear that, thanks for letting us know! 👍
