I’m trying to build the just released BIND 9.12.4 on a Macintosh running Mojave (10.14.3). Same results on one running High Sierra (10.13.6).
Running configure, I get an error checking for python: checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking if /usr/bin/python is python2 version >= 2.7 or python3 version >= 3.2... yes checking Python module 'argparse'... yes checking Python module 'ply'... no checking for python3... no checking for python3.7... no checking for python3.6... no checking for python3.5... no checking for python3.4... no checking for python3.3... no checking for python3.2... no checking for python2... no checking for python2.7... /usr/bin/python2.7 checking if /usr/bin/python2.7 is python2 version >= 2.7 or python3 version >= 3.2... yes checking Python module 'argparse'... yes checking Python module 'ply'... no checking for Python support... no configure: error: Python required for dnssec-keymgr If I try the same thing with 9.12.3-P4, it configures OK. The relevant output is: checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking python2 version >= 2.7 or python3 version >= 3.2... found checking python module 'argparse'... found checking python module 'ply'... not found checking for python3... no checking for python3.5... no checking for python3.4... no checking for python3.3... no checking for python3.2... no checking for python2... no checking for python2.7... /usr/bin/python2.7 checking python2 version >= 2.7 or python3 version >= 3.2... found checking python module 'argparse'... found checking python module 'ply'... not found checking for python support... disabled /usr/bin/python -V returns Python 2.7.10. I don’t know why even for 9.12.3-P4 which configures OK it says python support … disabled. I’m not seeing anything in the Release Notes about a change in Python requirements. Python is the version distributed with MacOS by Apple. -- Larry Stone lston...@stonejongleux.com _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
