MemoryError in FreeBSD (Cairo issue?)

[Alexander]

Hello. I have two identical configurations -- Ubuntu Fiesty/Python 2.5/Cairo + python cairo bindings and FreeBSD 6.2/Python 2.5/Cairo + python cairo bindings. In linux: pycha-0.2.0/examples# python barchart.py succeeds, and in FreeBSD fails:

pycha-0.2.0/examples# python barchart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "barchart.py", line 63, in <module>
    barChart('v' + output, pycha.bar.VerticalBarChart)

Are you using a 64 bits processor? I've seen some memory errors in Python 2.5 with 64 bits processors in other projects I work in.

If not, I'll try to give you a small test case to see if this is a (py)Cairo issue or not.

Thanks for reporting.

I have this problem too (on OS X, which is also BSD based), and I'm indeed on a 64-bit machine.

I am also getting this on OpenSolaris? 11 32bit.

I am also getting this on OpenSolaris? 11 32bit.

Also using Python 2.4.4

I've solved this problem by reinstalling pycairo from source rather than relying on what was fetched via easy_install.

I'm seeing MemoryError? in OpenBSD when using Cairo.

I am using FreeBSD 6.3 / 32 bit. May I have this test case to see if it is a (py)Cairo issue?
