Micropython-Unix

[Shravan N Agni]

Hi,
I am using orange pi zero running armbian(based on debian and ubuntu) for my project. I need to use the micropython package. I followed the steps given in "https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... d-variants" , but I am getting the error "../py/mkrules.mk:131: recipe for target 'micropython' failed
make: *** [micropython] Error 1" when I run the command "make".
I want use micropython on my Orange pi board. How do I install the packages?

Best Regards,

Can you paste the complete error?

Please find the attached file of the error I am getting.

You need python installed in your system.

I have installed python.
I think python is installed in root directory. I am trying to install micropython in home directory. Is that a problem?

[stijn]

You're logged in as root (why?) but working in /home/micropython. That is just confusing, directories under /home are meant to be per-user directories..
Anyway: might be that you have python installed (are you sure?), but the error clearly is 'python: command not found' so you cannot run it. Can you run 'python' at the shell?
If not you'll have to fix that, or let the Makefile know about the actual path to the python executable like 'make PYTHON=/path/to/python'

The os comes with pre installed python and I am able to run python interpreter.
I re installed the os and I am getting same error.
Are there any other methods to use micropython packages and run them on the boards(orange pi, raspberry pi etc)?

Did you respect the external dependencies as noted in the README? The packages libffi and libffi-dev seem to be missing.

Now it is working fine. I think pkg-config package was missing.
Thank you
