Is it possible to make a wheel or conda build for this lib?

[alykhantejani]

Currently accimage is used as a backend for torchvision, however it's not clear how to build it (what dependencies are required etc). I have been trying to build it this morning and it doesn't play nice if libjpeg is already in the system.

Would it be possible to release a distribution (a wheel or conda tar) of this so it's easier to install?

As a side note, this would allow us to easily install accimage as part of the travis job in torchvision so that we can run the tests that require accimage.

@alykhantejani I am facing the same issue here. Can I know what you did to properly install it?

[alykhantejani]

@yannadani Sorry, I haven't been able to install this yet

Is this still open?

Would be nice to have at least an installation instructions in the repo.

It seems Intel IPP must exists, otherwise no way to use this package.

python setup.py install --user

I'll push this to conda-forge once I've managed to package intel-ipp.

• accimage recipe: Add accimage python package conda-forge/staged-recipes#7610
• intel-ipp recipe: Add intel-ipp recipe conda-forge/staged-recipes#7662

accimage is now available on conda-forge, see the README (as of commit f2738a2 ) for instructions on installation
