Frequently Asked Questions¶
FAQ - BlenderVR Install¶
Error: Building PySide¶
PySide compilation fails and returns:
[ 83%] Building CXX object libshiboken/CMakeFiles/libshiboken.dir/shibokenbuffer.cpp.o, Linking CXX shared library libshiboken.cpython-34m.so
Python was built without using ./configure option --enable-shared and the default is disabled. The PySide build needs a python shared object (python.X.x.so) shared library and not a static (.a) library.
