- To install system-wide: run `make install` then navigate to `GTSAM_CYTHON_INSTALL_PATH` and run `python setup.py install`
|
||||
- (the same command can be used to install into a virtual environment if it is active)
|
||||
- note: if you don't want gtsam to install to a system directory such as `/usr/local`, pass `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="./install"` to cmake to install gtsam to a subdirectory of the build directory.
|
||||
- if you run `setup.py` from the build directory rather than the installation directory, the script will warn you with the message: `setup.py is being run from an unexpected location`.
|
||||
Before `make install` is run, not all the components of the package have been copied across, so running `setup.py` from the build directory would result in an incomplete package.
