HI all,
Just wanted to give everyone a quick heads-up about a problem I
encountered attemping to import some parts of PyMVPA for which sg
(i.e. shogun library) was a dependency (on 64-bit Ubuntu). I updated
my PyMVPA version yseterday to the latest distro from the Uni
Magdeburg repository (0.2.2) and was fixing my imports when I got the
following error:
when attempting to import mvpa.clfs.sg.svm.SVM, this came up:
"mpd" : (shogun.Classifier.MPDSVM, '')
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'MPDSVM'
I thought perhaps I just didn't have the shogun libraries, but after
checking Synaptic, it seems they were installed as a dependency with
0.2.2. I did import shogun directly into python and checked the
shogun.Classifiers package, and it seems there is no MPDSVM
whatsoever. Commenting out the line above from mvpa/clfs/sg/svm.py
fixed the import error (but might have caused other trouble).
Is this an Ubuntu-specific problem? The shogun package that was
downloaded is 'shogun-python-modular'.
Sorry if everyone's already aware of this issue -- just thought I'd
give people a heads-up.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
James.
