Working on Gentoo (on the robot Nao) that has no make and no gcc on it, it is really hard for me to install portaudio. I managed to put pyaudio in the right location so that python can detect it but whenever I try "import pyaudio" it asks me to install portaudio first. i have a virtual machine running gentoo emulating the robot where gcc and make are available. I could compile portaudio on that machine but then after copying its content to the robot I cannot run make install. Where should I put each library file exactly so that pyAudio can find it?
Thanks
Finally I could find the source of the problem. Somehow portaudio is installing itself to /usr/local/ but the robot I'm working on uses the folders in /usr i.e /usr/lib /usr/include and not /usr/local/lib etc. Putting the libraries in /usr/lib and also transferring manually some portaudio libs you can find in python site-packages folder solved the problem.
