Good day to all, I am a newbie in this forum and I am lost, I do not master English use Google translator; I wish I could install this package that is the only one I found for GNU/Linux and used it perfectly with MX and now that I installed Mageia 7.1 I want to continue using it, if you can help me I will be grateful:

Well, you probably need to compile it yourself, see the instructions at https://www.openastro.org/?Download#GenericLinux

Generic Linux Installation
You can also manually build openastro.org, the pyswisseph module and the ephemeris files.

Make sure you can get these dependencies satisfied to run the program:

python3-dateutil
gir1.2-rsvg-2.0
gir1.2-gtk-3.0
python3-tz
python3-dev
python3-cairo
imagemagick
librsvg2-bin
curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=python3-swisseph" | tar xz

cd python3-swisseph-2.00.00 && sudo python3 setup.py install

curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=openastro" | tar xz

cd openastro.org-1.1.57 && sudo python3 setup.py install --prefix=/usr

curl -L "http://www.openastro.org/download.php?file=source&type=data" | tar xz

cd openastro.org-data-1.9 && sudo python3 setup.py install --prefix=/usr
To run the program type "openastro" in a terminal



There are also RPM packages for Fedora which you could try as well, although I'm not sure they also provide the required python dependencies: https://pkgs.org/download/openastro

Thanks @doktor5000for the answer, I installed everything but I still can't make it work.
What chance is there that someone could compile it for the Mageia repository?
I would be grateful for the contribution, is the only software of this type that there is for GNU/Linux

There's no error message, it just doesn't start.
I think we need to correct this but I don't know how to do it.

Well, the error messages are pretty clear:

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1


You don't have a compiler ( see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Compiler_Collection ) installed and hence installation fails at executing that.
Try again after installing the package task-c++-devel : https://madb.mageia.org/package/show/so ... B%2B-devel

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pytz'

You are missing a python module. Try again after installing the package python-pytz: https://madb.mageia.org/package/show/na ... 0/source/1

Already with the 2 suggested packages installed, I re-run the entire installation procedure resulting in the error of the previous comment and also when running "openastro" from the terminal, this is the result:

You're missing a package that contains the file Python.h. You can search such a package with
Code: Select all
urpmf Python.h


Try again after
Code: Select all
urpmi python-devel


GersonLearchman wrote:ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pytz'

Still the same error as before, seems you either didn't install the package, or openastro cannot find it.

You can try if you get the same error using the following (which starts a python shell and tries to import that module)
Code: Select all
python -c 'import pytz'

Thanks again, I followed the previous instructions, installed Python.h and also 'import pytz' and ran all over again to install Openastro but it's exactly the same, it shows the same errors again:
Code: Select all
# error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
# ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pytz'

That is only the summary result, the actual error / the cause is above that line.

Good morning, I've done everything I've been suggested, but I still can not use the program, I already made:
# urpmf Python.h
# urpmi python-devel
And at the end of it all, this is the answer I get from the terminal:

You still the same issue as before, seems you installed the wrong pytz package. You should have installed python-pytz, as suggested earlier.

Please show the output of
Code: Select all
rpm -q python python-pytz

This is exactly what the problem is, you don't have that package installed (which I suggested to install two times previously).
Install python-pytz and that problem is fixed.

It is very nice this distribution, ideal for my machine but without this program that I use constantly, I think I renounce it.

Look, you don't have to be an advanced computer technician. The error message is clearly telling what the problem is, you are still missing python modules which are required by openastro or one of its components.

In this case
ImportError: No module named request

So install python-requests and that error goes away.

Definitely as much as I do everything to the letter and follow his instructions, I haven't been able to make it work. It would be a big help if you could pack it for Mageia. Is that possible?
