Sporadic errors when building TVTK classes

yoda-vid opened this issue · 3 comments

I've been encountering sporadic installation errors the Building TVTK classes step. It occurs on at least Windows and macOS, both locally and in our CI. The error appears to resemble those I've seen in the Mayavi CI (eg https://github.com/enthought/mayavi/actions/runs/4081565144/jobs/7042041456#step:5:4492 and https://github.com/enthought/mayavi/actions/runs/4149642172/jobs/7178740011#step:5:4492).

Here is the error output on macOS 12.6, Python 3.8:

  Building wheel for mayavi (pyproject.toml) ... error

  ERROR: Failed building wheel for mayavi

And similar errors in our CI on Windows (Python 3.7 run and 3.8 run).

Seems to happen more locally when my system is under load but haven't found a way to reproduce it consistently. I also don't recall seeing it with VTK 9.1.0.

Workaround has been to rerun the installation. Is this a known issue? If so, are there other workarounds? Thanks for your help!

I encountered the same issue when installing it for a Conda environment in a Docker Image

Which version of VTK is this failing with, I am fixing some issues with 9.2..6 currently.

Should be fixed in master with the merge of #1199.
