Pyston can't get freetype2 version because ZLIB 1.2.9 is not found #41
Description
I've been trying pyston 2.2 for running an open-source Mathematica called Mathics
Using it is about 25-30% faster than CPython as advertised. Thanks!
In doing this and running package wordcloud
I get this traceback in part...
File "/src/external-vcs/github/mathics/Mathics/mathics/builtin/drawing/image.py", line 2560, in _word_cloud
wc.generate_from_frequencies(freq)
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/wordcloud/wordcloud.py", line 496, in generate_from_frequencies
font = ImageFont.truetype(self.font_path, font_size)
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 853, in truetype
return freetype(font)
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 850, in freetype
return FreeTypeFont(font, size, index, encoding, layout_engine)
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 173, in __init__
freetype_version = parse_version(features.version_module("freetype2"))
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/packaging/version.py", line 57, in parse
return Version(version)
File "/home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/site-packages/packaging/version.py", line 296, in __init__
match = self._regex.search(version)
What is going on above is that version from the call parse_version(...("freetype2") is coming back None and that is because the dynamic loader is not findingZLIB_1.2.9:
__import__('PIL._imagingft')
** ImportError: /home/rocky/.pyenv/versions/pyston-2.2/lib/pyston3.8/lib-dynload/../../../lib/libz.so.1: version `ZLIB_1.2.9' not found (required by /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16)
