Cannot install psycopg2 on OSX 10.6.7 with XCode4
installation, pip, psycopg2, python, xcode4
Solution
It seems that there was something wrong with the ARCHFLAGS actually sticking, so finally using:
sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64" pip install psycopg2
actually worked.
Problem
Trying to install psycopg2 on OSX results in the following: ``` building 'psycopg2._psycopg' extension creating build/temp.macosx-10.6-universal-2.6 creating build/temp.macosx-10.6-universal-2.6/psycopg gcc-4.2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -Os -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -DENABLE_DTRACE -arch i386 -arch ppc -arch x86_64 -pipe -DPSYCOPG_DEFAULT_PYDATETIME=1 -DPSYCOPG_VERSION="2.4 (dt dec pq3 ext)" -DPG_VERSION_HEX=0x090003 -DPSYCOPG_EXTENSIONS=1 -DPSYCOPG_NEW_BOOLEAN=1 -DHAVE_PQFREEMEM=1 -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include/python2.6 -I. -I/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.0.3/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.0.3/include/server -c psycopg/psycopgmodule.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.6-universal-2.6/psycopg/psycopgmodule.o /usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin10/4.2.1/as: assembler (/usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as or /usr/bin/../local/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as) for architecture ppc not installed Installed assemblers are: /usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/x86_64/as for architecture x86_64 /usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/i386/as for architecture i386 psycopg/psycopgmodule.c:1009: fatal error: error writing to -: Broken pipe compilation terminated. lipo: can't open input file: /var/folders/zf/zfsYTD29GwSWm+UDcF6VxE+++TM/-Tmp-//ccd8ckcV.out (No such file or directory) error: command 'gcc-4.2' failed with exit status 1 ``` Does anyone have any idea what can I do to get it installed? I have Postgres installed and it seems to work fine. I’ve tried both easy_install and pip install, but both end up with a similar message.
