Re: [gpsd-users] Compiling gpsd > 3.11 at Centos 6.6 fails with "ValueError" kind of problem

[Jon Schlueter]

 

ValueError: zero length field name in format:
  File "/root/data-acquisition-devel-nm2/gpsd/gpsd-3.14/SConstruct", line 1528:
    ['''pep8 --ignore=E501,W602,E122,E241,E401 {} gps/[a-zA-Z]*.py *.py'''.format(" ".join(python_progs))])

That looks like an issue with one of the check programs 

Try commenting out just that line and see if it builds.  Also you will want to use python 2 for gpsd's build system
