Installation de numba (python) sous Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic)

(ça doit être pareil sous Ubuntu 14.04 j'imagine)

D'après https://github.com/numba/numba, les dépendances python sont :

• llvmlite
• numpy (version 1.6 or higher)
• argparse (for pycc in python2.6)
• funcsigs (for Python 2)

Pour llvmlite, il faut installer préalablement libedit et llvm-3.5 sous Ubuntu

Généralement, numpy et argparse sont déjà installés.

Il manque enum34 si vous utilisez Python 2.

sudo apt-get install libedit-dev
sudo apt-get install llvm-3.5
sudo LLVM_CONFIG=`which llvm-config-3.5` pip install llvmlite

sudo pip install numpy
sudo pip install argparse
sudo pip install funcsigs
sudo pip install enum34

sudo pip install numba

Version de llvm

Attention, if faut llvm-config (et donc llvm) version 3.5 et pas 3.4

Pourquoi ? Parce que avant la version 3.5, llvm-config ne gère pas l'option --system-libs

$ llvm-config-3.5 --system-libs
-lz -lpthread -lffi -ledit -ltinfo -ldl -lm 

$ llvm-config-3.4 --system-libs
usage: llvm-config <OPTION>... [<COMPONENT>...]

Get various configuration information needed to compile programs which use
LLVM.  Typically called from 'configure' scripts.  Examples:
  llvm-config --cxxflags
  llvm-config --ldflags
  llvm-config --libs engine bcreader scalaropts

Options:
  --version         Print LLVM version.
  --prefix          Print the installation prefix.
  --src-root        Print the source root LLVM was built from.
  --obj-root        Print the object root used to build LLVM.
  --bindir          Directory containing LLVM executables.
  --includedir      Directory containing LLVM headers.
  --libdir          Directory containing LLVM libraries.
  --cppflags        C preprocessor flags for files that include LLVM headers.
  --cflags          C compiler flags for files that include LLVM headers.
  --cxxflags        C++ compiler flags for files that include LLVM headers.
  --ldflags         Print Linker flags.
  --libs            Libraries needed to link against LLVM components.
  --libnames        Bare library names for in-tree builds.
  --libfiles        Fully qualified library filenames for makefile depends.
  --components      List of all possible components.
  --targets-built   List of all targets currently built.
  --host-target     Target triple used to configure LLVM.
  --build-mode      Print build mode of LLVM tree (e.g. Debug or Release).
Typical components:
  all               All LLVM libraries (default).
  engine            Either a native JIT or a bitcode interpreter.
