Dear Tiago, Thank you for your fast reply. The new configure command I used was therefore: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/anaconda3 --with-boost=/usr/local/anaconda3 --enable-openmp Unfortunately, the problem wasn’t solved. The new config.log is attached: Do you have another idea what might help the configuration? Best wishes, Jana

Dear Tiago,

while trying to compile graph-tool for anaconda3 and python 3 we came across following error message: configure: error: pycairo headers not found

I ran the following command: ./configure --with-boost=/usr/local/anaconda3 --enable-openmp

Python3 is installed in /usr/local/anaconda3/bin and typing in python starts the correct version.

The pycairo headers (py3cairo.h) are located in: /usr/local/anaconda3/include/pycairo

I am surprised it can't pick the file up, because it seems to pick up other files from /usr/local/anaconda3/include.

Do you have any idea what we could have missed?

The config.log <http://main-discussion-list-for-the-graph-tool-project.982480.n3.nabble.com/file/t496114/config.log> is attached and I am running Ubuntu 16.04.

Dear Jana,

Please read the compilation instructions more carefully:

Since you are installing things in a nonstandard directory, you need to specify it using --prefix. In your case it should be:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/anaconda3

Best, Tiago
