PyOpenGL-accelerate + numpy

Question

I'm installing MakeHuman on Debian, so all dependencies was set up, but when launching it's an error:

SYS.PLATFORM: linux2
PLATFORM.MACHINE: x86_64
PLATFORM.PROCESSOR: 
PLATFORM.UNAME.RELEASE: 2.6.32.26
PLATFORM.LINUX_DISTRIBUTION: debian 6.0.6 
NUMPY.VERSION: 1.6.2
OpenGL_accelerate module loaded

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'sizeof'

Does anyone solve problems with link PyOpenGL+ numpy?

Answer 1

fixed that on my system by issuing:

sudo easy_install -U PyOpenGL

Noting:

• using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, with python2.7
• did get a Permission denied error without that leading 'sudo'
• via: http://matthew-4gl.wikispaces.com/python_modules ( in turn from https://bitbucket.org/ompl/ompl/issue/59/problem-with-ompl_apppy )

good luck
