Compiling Assisstance? (Debian Buster)

tiredofit

Hi all,
I’m trying to compile Kopano Core from the master branch and encountering some problems. The compilation itself goes fine, however fails when I perform make install.

I’m building this inside of a docker container with the ultimate goal of installing to a directory where I could tar the results and copy it into another Docker Image, however even just a straight install fails.

OS: Debian Buster
Configure options --enable-release (I have tried others including this with same results:

    PYTHON3=/usr/bin/python3 ./configure \
                                          --prefix / \
                                          --exec-prefix=/usr \
                                          --localstatedir=/var \
                                          --libdir=/usr/lib \
                                          --sysconfdir=/etc \
                                          --sbindir=/usr/bin \
                                          --datarootdir=/usr/share \
                                          --includedir=/usr/include \
                                          --enable-epoll \
                                          --enable-kcoidc \
                                          --enable-release

Upon completion of the configuration scripts, I perform a make which seemingly compiles with no errors.
Upon executing make install I am presented with errors when it attempts to execute setup.py in the Kopano Backup tool. I can however enter into the filesystem manually, execute setup.py on my own and it seemingly performs the install of the backup tool, however I would prefer if it happened in the same make install command. Output here:

Am I missing any important patches that need to be applied here to make this successfully complete?

PYTHON3=... seems wrong to me. It is just PYTHON=...

For hints how to build with parameters, look at https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KC/repos/kopanocore/browse/Jenkinsfile#30 or https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KC/repos/kopanocore/browse/Dockerfile.build#112

Many thanks. I’ll walk through the Jenkins file and figure out where I’m going wrong!

PYTHON3 was definitely the problem. I was able to successfully build! Having a weird issue with it not taking PYTHON_PATH/PYTHON_EXEC_PATH variables to send the python packages to somewhere other than site-packages (I’m looking for dist-packages), but I have a rather embearassing hack in place to move them manually after install. Thanks for your assistance.
