PathPilot V2 source code

When I compiled it I did so from a working PP install so all my dependacies where meet then I posted the files asked for.

you can not just overlay LinuxCNC code over the PP code
From what I see (i have not done this as of this time though) you need to merge it with what tormach supplies.

edit the tormach make files to add the stuff you want added in then use the tormach make to get a full working PP build

I never did get a build of Mint+LinuxCNC working in a way that worked with PP
only by starting with their environment did I get it to work

BTW: PP2 is based on LinuxCNC 2.8.0-Pre

Really? I thought that PP was based on Machinekit and so was rather diverged from LinuxCNC 2.8

If PP2 is LinuxCNC-based then that should make the 9-axis lookahead much easier to merge in. 
(As the JA changes were a major issue there, as so much changed) 
 

Yep
From the PP2.8.3 Log

 

I recently received the 2.9.0 PathPilot source. Took a while, but I finally got it.

I've been trying to compile for a couple days and have not gotten a clean compile yet. I have installed the PP source on a system that has a working version of PP 2.9.1 running on it.

Couple of things:
1) Not sure what version of Python2.7 they are using on their compile machines. The distro of mint they used comes with 2.7.6. I made a little headway with 2.7.9, but currently 2.7.18 has made the most progress. 
2) Not sure what version of pip they are using.
3) It appears that the Makefile attempts to resolve at least .py dependancies as it downloads a bunch of packages during the make.
4) I'm currently stuck on a problem with GTK being missing when one of the .py files used in the make process attempts to import gtk

Anyone else gotten a clean compile of a recent source release?

Scott...

From 2.9.1 Python VENV

operator@tormachpcnc:~/tmc/venv/bin$ ./python -V
Python 2.7.6

operator@tormachpcnc:~/tmc/venv/bin$ ./pip -V
pip 20.3.4 

Some of the GTK related libraries I have installed (includes dev packages)
libgtksourceview2.0-0
libgtk2.0-0
libgtk-3-0
glade-gtk2 3.8.0-0

Not entirely sure that they are using 2.7.6 to build with. One of the first things that is missing is "virtualenv" When I try to run the following command from tmc/venv/bin...

sudo ./pip install virtualenv

I get the following errors:

This is what made me upgrade python to 2.7.9 to start with.
