I keep getting this error when trying to install mediasoup. I’m using macOS btw.

Thanks,
Philip

Please, specify at least which version of mediasoup you are installing. And also type python --version output, OSX version, etc.

pbfnery · May 30, 2019, 10:38am

macOS: 10.14.5
mediasoup: 3.0.12
node: 10.15.0
python: 3.6.6 (I also have python2 with version 2.7.15)
yarn: 1.16.0

ibc · May 30, 2019, 10:44am

It works for me with:

macOS: 10.14.4
mediasoup: 3.0.12
node: 10.15.0
python: 3.7.2
yarn: 1.16.0

Please, try two different approaches:

1. Install mediasoup with Python 2

Assuming you have python2 command:

$ PYTHON=python2 yarn add mediasoup

2. Upgrade Python 3 to 3.7.2

Or newer. AFAIS I’ve got it via Homebrew. And try again.

And since this looks a bug, please let’s continue in GitHub (I’ve reopened the corresponding issue):

pbfnery · May 30, 2019, 11:47am

I’ve tried the following and unfortunately all of them failed:

PYTHON=python2 yarn add mediasoup (2.7.15)
yarn add mediasoup (upgraded to 3.7.3)
PYTHON=/usr/local/Cellar/python@2/2.7.16/bin/python yarn add mediasoup (tried using homebrew’s python)

I also tried disabling nvm and manually installing node 10.16.0 and it’s still failing for me.

I’m not sure if it matters but I also use pyenv.

ibc · May 30, 2019, 11:51am

Definitely no idea. Can you experiment without yarn? I mean, clone the mediasoup repo, enter into the worker directory and run:

make
PYTHON=xxxxxx make
etc

Also, are you sure that when you have tested yarn add mediasoup (upgraded to 3.7.3) you have used python 3.7.3?

pbfnery · May 30, 2019, 12:29pm

Okay I’ve tried what you’ve suggested and added some print statements in mac-tool.py

Does this help?

for line in err.splitlines():
    print("Line:", line, "\n")
    if not libtool_re.match(line) and not libtool_re5.match(line):
        print(line, file=sys.stderr)

Printing err.splitlines() will output the following:

Modifying mac_tool.py works!

for line in err.splitlines():
      decoded_line = line.decode("utf-8") 
      if not libtool_re.match(decoded_line) and not libtool_re5.match(decoded_line):
        print(decoded_line, file=sys.stderr)

Can you please provide the diff in the corresponding Chromium issue? I’ll come back to this issue next week.

pbfnery · May 31, 2019, 5:04pm

Okay I’ve just replied here
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gyp/issues/detail?id=36

Thanks by the way!

ibc · May 31, 2019, 9:01pm

I’ve added that path in mediasoup v3 branch and also made a change to prefer python2 if available:

Can you please try with v3 branch to see if it works? Note that it would now choose python2 by default, so in order to test python 3 just do PYTHON=python3 make as you know

Let’s make this question as resolved and let’s continue in the gyp issue in chromium.
