pydeep fails on OSX 10.9.5 about pydeep HOT 11 CLOSED

Hi @SnakeByteIL
pydeep needs ssdeep to build. Looks like the installer is unable to find libssdeep and its headers(fuzzy.h) Or do you have ssdeep installed at a non standard location?

from pydeep.

Nop it's installed also ssdeep works. Was also trying via brew ssdeep and
still failed

I just installed ssdeep and pydeep on a fresh 10.9.5 and it worked.
Based on the pydeep build logs you posted, it looks like the build was for i386. Can you make sure that ssdeep was i386 as well? If not, set the arch to x86_64:
export ARCHFLAGS='-arch x86_64'
And then try pydeep build again?

If that still fails, can you post the "otool -L" and "file" output for the ssdeep binary? And the version of ssdeep too.

(I will add the architecture check to the setup.py script soon.)

from pydeep.

ssdeep -V 2.9
installed in /usr/local/bin/ssdeep

otool -L ssdeep
ssdeep:
/usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 120.0.0)
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1197.1.1)

Not sure whats going on here, but forcing setup.py to look in /usr/local/include for fuzzy.h seems to solve this corner case.
Adding the two lines to setup.py should make it work. Also, this is how you make setup.py look in non-standard locations.

Out of curiosity, why was this marked as wontfix?

@kai5263499 you might be onto something. I dont see why i cant update setup.py to include those two paths. What say you?

from pydeep.

So long as it doesn't break the build for other platforms I say go for it. I changed setup.py to get it to build on FreeBSD 10 so it appears that this issue affects both OSX and BSD platforms at least.

from pydeep.

Just a reminder I've had the same problem again with the newest version of OSX - 10.10.3

It was solved using your previous changes to setup.py:

Finally got this into 54aa11d
