cutadapt 1.9.1 error

[vishwesh]

Hi,
When i try to use cutadapt without installation I get the following error.

[USER@user cutadapt-1.9.1]$ python2.6 ./bin/cutadapt --help

ERROR: A required extension module could not be imported because it is
incompatible with your system. A quick fix is to recompile the extension
modules with the following command:

/usr/bin/python2.6 setup.py build_ext -i

See the documentation for alternative ways of installing the program.

The original error message follows.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./bin/cutadapt", line 9, in <module>
from cutadapt.scripts import cutadapt
File "/user/cutadapt-1.9.1/cutadapt/scripts/cutadapt.py", line 62, in <module>
check_importability()
File "/user/cutadapt-1.9.1/cutadapt/__init__.py", line 9, in check_importability
import cutadapt._align
ImportError: /user/cutadapt-1.9.1/cutadapt/_align.so: undefined symbol: PyFPE_jbuf

I get the same error even after running

[user@user cutadapt-1.9.1]$ python setup.py build_ext -i

After running the above command as mentioned in the manual I get

[user@user cutadapt-1.9.1]$ python setup.py build_ext -i
running build_ext

The python version is 2.6...

Can some one tell me whats going wrong..

Thanks..

Regards

Do you see an error after the build_ext command or it completes without warning?

[vishwesh]

Thanks...
No error or warning is posted..
The message after executing the build command is

running build_ext

Thats all...

Have you tried using a newer python (like shown at the end of this page: http://cutadapt.readthedocs.org/en/s...tallation.html)
