Bug ID: 797368
Summary: Windows bootstrap fails with Python 3.7.1
Classification: Platform
Product: GStreamer
Version: git master
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: cerbero
Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

GNOME version: ---
Git master on Windows with Python 3.7.1 running: python ./cerbero-uninstalled

Checking .pth file support in
c:\gstreamer\build\cerbero\build\build-tools\Lib\site-packages\
c:\python3\pythonw.exe -E -c pass
TEST FAILED: c:\gstreamer\build\cerbero\build\build-tools\Lib\site-packages\
does NOT support .pth files
error: bad install directory or PYTHONPATH
You are attempting to install a package to a directory that is not
on PYTHONPATH and which Python does not read ".pth" files from. The
installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:
c:\gstreamer\build\cerbero\build\build-tools\Lib\site-packages\
and your PYTHONPATH environment variable currently contains:
'c:/gstreamer/build/cerbero/build/build-tools/Lib/site-packages;c:/gstreamer/build/cerbero/build/build-tools/Lib/site-packages'
Here are some of your options for correcting the problem:
* You can choose a different installation directory, i.e., one that is
on PYTHONPATH or supports .pth files
* You can add the installation directory to the PYTHONPATH environment
variable. (It must then also be on PYTHONPATH whenever you run
Python and want to use the package(s) you are installing.)
* You can set up the installation directory to support ".pth" files by
using one of the approaches described here:
https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/easy_install.html#custom-installation-locations
Please make the appropriate changes for your system and try again.

Select an action to proceed:

[4] Abort
Downgrading Python to 3.5.4 has solved it. Have tried many workarounds but
downgrade was more straightforward. Haven't tried Python 3.6.x.
