[Solved] Ipython Notebook Setup - zmq Dependency Issue

I'm posting both the problem and the solution here in case this helps anyone else who is working with IPython
I just ran into  an issue trying to run the ipython notebook on a fresh install of Arch Linux. After installation Ipython works correctly from a shell/terminal prompt, but fails to start when you try to run it in notebook mode (via the' $ ipython notebook --pylab' command ).
This fails with an error that the incorrect version of pyzmq is installed - it's looking for version 2.1.4 (which apparently is not installed with the IPython install. FWIW I reinstalled ipython just to verify that I was not imagining things<g>)!.  You can see some more info on this link:
http://ipython.org/ipython-doc/dev/inst … python-zmq
To reinstall/upgrade to the correct version use the following command:
$ sudo pip2 install ipython[zmq]
Notes:  1) This is the appropriate syntax to install subcomponents within a package (did not know this before as I normally install the entire pkg))
            2) I use pip2 here as I have both py2.7 and 3.3 installed and I'm trying to develop with py 3.3.
            3) AFAIK pip install is recommended over pacman for python components.
Hope this helps someone as it's frustrating trying to solve these install dependency issues - especially if the focus is on finishing some other task. Perhaps someone could confirm where this needs to be fixed as the problem is probably due to an upstream dependency.

Where's the keymap hook?

  • UE4 demos not running due to dependency issues after upgraded from Windows 7 x64 to Windows 8.1 Pro x64

    Hi, I posted a more in detail thread about this on the UE4 forums. 
    https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/84890/dependency-issues-with-running-ue4-demos.html

    Hi,
    Are you using a Gmail account on both Outlook PC client and on the phone? Is it an IMAP account?
    Since you mentioned it also occurs to your phone, have you tried to logon the Gmail webmail to check the account status? If new emails sent to the account don't show up on the phone, it's not isolated to Outlook then, we need to contact the Gmail support
    to get this issue addressed.
    For the emails missing issue, I suggest you just open the .pst file instead of importing it. In Outlook 2013, go to FILE tab -> Open & Export -> Open Outlook Data File -> Browse to the .pst file and open it. It should then be displayed
    in the account list on left. Check if the emails are still missing.
    If you can confirm you included the emails in 2014 but they are still nowhere in sight, they may be filtered by the Outlook View. Run Outlook with the switch "/cleanviews" to check whether the emails are shown:
    Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /cleanviews" in the blank box, press Enter. Outlook will reset default view, all custom views will be lost.
    Let me know if you have further questions.

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
    programs.

  • Why would Extension Manager CS6 report dependency issues for 29 InDesign CS6 factory plug-ins?

    Suddenly Extension Manager CS6 is reporting dependency issues for 29 InDesign CS6 factory plug-ins. I made no changes to those plugins that might have precipitated this. Anyone have any ideas about what might have happened? (This is happening with Extension Manager 6.0.8.28 and InDesign 8.0.2.) Some examples of the plugins reported as not meeting dependency condition are the following:
       Book Panel (8.0.0.370)
       PDF (8.0.2.413)
       Snippet (8.0.0.370)
       XML (8.0.2.413)
       XMLParser (8.0.0.370)
    Hayden

    1. You only pasted one log file (log0.log?), there is another more important log file: ExtensionManager.log you dind't paste.
    2. Have you removed ALL mxi files from ALL subfolders of BOTH "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store" AND "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store" to separate folder? If yes, Extension Manager shouldn't hang.
    3. Please make sure you have "Full control" permission to ""C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\Configuration\DB\ExMan.db" and "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\Configuration\DB\ExManUser.db". You can check it in "Security" tab page of "Properties" dialog box.

  • How to release plugin(solve dependency issues)

    I've developed a illustrator plugin dependent on Qt library, it runs well on the develop machine.
    The libOliveLib.dylib is a shared library which developed by Qt.
    Following are the dependencies of the plugin:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/Cocoa.framework/Versions/A/Cocoa (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 15.0.0)
    @executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/5/QtCore (compatibility version 5.4.0, current version 5.4.0)

    /usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 227.0.0)
    And the dependencies of libOliveLib:
    @executable_path/../Frameworks/libOliveLib.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0)
      @executable_path/../Frameworks/QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets (compatibility version 5.4.0, current version 5.4.0)

      /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1213.0.0)
    But when I deploy it to other machine, it crashed. I think it caused by dependency.
    Any one has this issue before, could you please give me your suggestions or your solutions
    Many hanks!

    Hi LeoTaro,
    Thanks for your response!
    This issue can be solved by adding qt.conf file to folder "/Applications/Adobe Illustrator CS6/Adobe Illustrator.app/Contents/Resources".
    But this folder is Application resources folder or Adobe Illustrator, I think add qt.conf file to this folder doesn't make sense.
    Is there any alternative ways?
    I've also tried adding "QCoreApplication::addLibraryPath()" and "QCoreApplication::libraryPaths()", but it doesn't work.
    Best Regards,
    Jae Liu

  • How to solve a PKGBUILD dependency issue for the MinGW-w64 toolchain?

    Hi,
    I had the ambitious plan of creating PKGBUILDs to provide a fully functional and full-featured MinGW-w64 toolchain in Arch (starting with the AUR). For those of you not aware of MinGW-w64; it's a project that provides the more complete alternative for MinGW.org: they support a much larger set of the Win32 API and provide 64-bit support. In short: they allow you to use GCC for Windows 32 and 64-bit.
    The current list of packages is here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&K=rubenvb
    They work (roughly, for me, I'm working out the problems as people report them), but only if you build and install them manually.
    I would like to ask the help of the experts that reside here to resolve the issue that handy tools like yaourt and other AUR utilities cannot build/install these packages automagically, so that people are more easily persuaded to use my packages. The dependencies here are what functionally needs to be set, not per se what the current PKGBUILDs specify, due to numerous experiments and trial and error...)
    The build and install order needs to be strictly followed:
    1. build+install mingw-w64-headers-base (no makedepends)
    2. build+install mingw-w64-binutils (no makedepends)
    3. build+install mingw-w64-gcc-base (makedepends and depends: mingw-w64-binutils)
    4. build+install mingw-w64-crt (makedepends and depends: mingw-w64-gcc-base and mingw-w64-binutils)
    5. build mingw-w64-winpthreads (makedepends: mingw-w64-headers-base, mingw-w64-gcc-base and mingw-w64-binutils, conflicts mingw-w64-headers-base)
    6. build mingw-w64-headers (no makedepends, conflicts mingw-w64-headers-base)
    7. install mingw-w64-headers (replaces mingw-w64-headers-base)
    8. install mingw-w64-winpthreads
    9. build+install mingw-w64-gcc (replaces mingw-w64-gcc-base)
    I tried to enforce this as much as possible in the PLGBUILDs, but am unsure if everything is as it should be...
    The resulting binary packages that non-AUR-users
    (once mingw-w64 is in a binary repo) should install:
    - mingw-w64-headers
    - mingw-w64-crt
    - mingw-w64-winpthreads
    - mingw-w64-binutils
    - mingw-w64-gcc
    The issue is that winpthreads overwrites two dummy headers that have to be included in mingw-w64-headers-base, so I provide a mingw-w64-headers package omitting these two files, but unusable without mingw-w64-winpthreads. So winpthreads needs to be built when mingw-w64-headers-base is installed, and mingw-w64-headers cannot be installed before winpthreads is installed, due to these two headers (per architecture) being supplied by winpthreads in a complete form.
    I will try to tune the dependencies tonight, but any help or insight into the automation process is highly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Ruben

    Interesting problem.
    While i don't use any aur helper, i think you can simplify your approach a bit.
    Here's how i would do it (changes in red) :
    1. build+install mingw-w64-headers-base (no makedepends)
    this package DOES NOT include the dummy headers
    1a. build + install mingw-w64-headers-extra-dummy (makedepends : mingw-w64-headers-base)
    this package will include ONLY the dummy headers
    2. build+install mingw-w64-binutils (no makedepends)
    3. build+install mingw-w64-gcc-base (makedepends and depends: mingw-w64-binutils)
    4. build+install mingw-w64-crt (makedepends and depends: mingw-w64-gcc-base and mingw-w64-binutils)
    5. build mingw-w64-winpthreads
    makedepends:
    mingw-w64-headers-base, mingw-w64-gcc-base and mingw-w64-binutils, mingw-w64-headers-extra-dummy
    conflicts with mingw-w64-headers-extra-dummy
    provides mingw-w64-headers-extra
    6. skipped
    7. skipped
    8. install mingw-w64-winpthreads
    9. build+install mingw-w64-gcc (replaces mingw-w64-gcc-base)
    makedepends : mingw-w64-headers-base, mingw-w64-headers-extra

    pactree -r kdelibs will give you an idea how many things on your system require kdelibs and thus phonon .

  • [solved] luks on lvm encryption keymap issue

    hi,
    i just installed arch on a new notebook of mine.
    i used a luks encrypted lvm installation, which works (guided by the wiki)
    but i am encoutering an issue with the keymap while decrypting at boot.
    i've installed using "de-latin1-nodeadkeys" as keymap, and my actual passwort has some special characters.
    at boot, i'v entered the passwort but it doesn't work.
    so i rebootet with the live image and checked, with the german keymap again, which worked.
    i checked for mispelling btw .
    for testing purposes i set a password like "///" and it seems that the keymap at boot is an english one.
    https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/36689 i found this bug, but it says closed so i'm thinking i went wrong somewhere.
    any help is appreciated
    here is my mkinitcpio.conf

    # MODULES
    # The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
    # run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
    # in this array. For instance:
    # MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
    MODULES=""
    # BINARIES
    # This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
    # wish into the CPIO image. This is run last, so it may be used to
    # override the actual binaries included by a given hook
    # BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
    BINARIES=""
    # FILES
    # This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
    # as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
    FILES=""
    # HOOKS
    # This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the
    # modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
    # Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
    # order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
    # help on a given hook.
    # 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
    # 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules

    ## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
    ## No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.

    ## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
    ## No autodetection is done.
    # HOOKS="base udev block filesystems"
    ## This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
    ## Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.

    Just bought a new notebook when going through the initial setup I put in a Microsoft username and password but I don't think I have one so now under setup it's still thinking 20 minutes later and I can't cancel it with a before button. The next button doesn't work. How can I start setup again any keys to try go back to start?
    Big thanks Amanda

    Hi @Mandymoo9 ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your HP 14-D015TU  Notebook and getting a blank or black screen on startup. Try performing a hard reset.
    When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
    This should start things over again for you.
    Hope this helps you out.
    Thanks.

    If that is true (could you show output of mount and your fstab?) that is worth investigating.
    However, your original problem seems to be that systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service fails. If something is wrong with your mounts, that could be related, but it might very well be something else. Is there any more information in the journal to indicate why the service fails (maybe even mentioning a tmpfiles.d config file that is responsible)? Did you create any config files for tmpfiles.d yourself?
    Sorry guys, I tried to be concise, but ended up that I didn't make myself clear.
    My '/tmp' is mounting fine as it takes priority over systemd. In fact, what I wanted to say is that '/tmp' mounts fine, systemd tried to mount tmpfs at '/tmp' and fails and I want to point tmpfs to mount at '/run/tmpfs' which I created for this, but just editing '/usr/lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount' didn't solve.
    As for journalctl, it repeats several times this message:

    I created my /var during arch installation, with mkfs.reiserfs.
    Using
    tune2fs -l /dev/sdXY | grep "Default mount options:"
    To check if acl was already enabled, I got:

  • HP Notebook 2000 cooling fan issue

    Hey, everyone. I've had my HP Notebook 2000 for a few years and I've discovered my first major issue just a few days ago when the cooling fan stopped working. I don't really mind it too much because I have a USB-powered cooling fan that my laptop rests on, and it does a pretty good job. My entire laptop remains at about the same average tempurature.
    The biggest issue I'm having is every few hours, the laptop will automatically shut off because of it.
    As well, when I boot it up (turn it on), it gives me a reminder that the cooling fan isn't working and I will have to press "enter" or the laptop shuts off in 15 seconds.
    How can I make it so the laptop ignores the broken cooling fan? I don't want to spend the money to repair it because I can rely on the USB-powered cooling device.
    Thank you!
    ~Mark
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    No you can't. Reason it probably shuts down is because cpu temps peak over safety threshhold at times thus it shuts down to prevent damage.
    Cooling systems on hp's are not the best when working so thermal stress on cpu,gpu & mainboard will be bad & failure failure will occur quite quickly.
    Fan assembly is very cheap & can be done DIY if you have some skill in dismantling these sort of things & following hp service manual & other online guides.
    I expect a new fan & new thermal paste & shimming along with cleaning would do wonders for running temps & long term health of the notebook.

    version of my python-pyzmq is 14.3.0-1. It works on another computer with arch, when I do fresh install and it worked on this machine 3 days ago. Since then, nothing around python has changed in my computer (according to pacman.log).
    Thank you

    Hello. I found a problem! This problem is caused by `libsodium 0.5.0.-1`. Downgrading package to 0.4.5-2 solve that.
    You can do that by:
    pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libsodium-0.4.5-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    and then add "libsodium" to /etc/pacman.conf IgnorePkg list.

  • HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Video playback issues

    Hi,
    The product I am using is HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC and a Windows 8.1 operating system.
    I am currently experiencing a problem with my laptop. Whenever I try and play a video no matter what website I am using one of two things happen. The video either buffers but does not play at all (no sound or video) for a minute or the video play for 7 second (with no sound) then freezes for about a minute and then plays the sound from the beginning and only starts playing the video when the sound catches up.
    Note - when I try to play several vidoes as once they all start playing at the same time.
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    A few things to try ChrisM95. The first thing to check is the volume mixer from desktop mode. Right click on your volume icon in the system tray, and 'open volume mixer'. When you go to a site and play a video, you may get a new slider for that site. Make sure it is not muted, and the slider is up.
    Here is Googles troubleshooting list for YouTube: No sound on videos
    Here is the general no sound document. Don't discount it right away, go through the steps to make sure it is configured correctly: No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8)
    I am not certain if you have the Recovery Manager, but if you do you might be able to restore the original IDT Audio drivers using this method: Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8)

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC (Product number: QG704EA#B1A) with an AMD radeon HD 6700M graphics card. Most of my games crash, im always given a graphical error, i experience freezes, lagging and general overheating. This only happens when playing games.
    I have done every update Intel, radeon and hp offers and nothing works including bios updates. All my research tells me its just a bad compatibility with the graphics card. Can that really be true? Have i wasted over a thousand euro on just bad hardware??
    My warrenty expired already, i had no idea this could happen with a laptop.
