Dear OE folks,
when compiling XBMC for the ARM architecture it hard codes Python 2.5
[1] and a patch in the OE repository changes this to Python 2.6 [2].
I tried to use `python-config` to determine the Python version [3].
ifeq (arm, $(ARCH))
-# Force external python2.5 for now!
-LIBS +=-lpython2.5
+# Force external Python for now!
+LIBS += $(shell python-config --libs)
endif
This fails with the following error though documented in `log.do_compile`.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/oe/build/angstrom-dev/sysroots/i686-linux/usr/bin/python-config", line 6, in
<module>
from distutils import sysconfig
File
"/oe/build/angstrom-dev/sysroots/i686-linux/usr/lib/python2.6/distutils/sysconfig.py",
line 22, in <module>
PREFIX = os.path.normpath(sys.prefix).replace(
os.getenv("BUILD_SYS"), os.getenv("HOST_SYS") )
Do you know of an easy way to fix this with just adapting `Makefile.in`?
Or is using a separate variable as `PYTHON_LIBS` [4] the only option
besides hard coding and patching?
ifeq (arm, $(ARCH))
# Force external Python for now!
-LIBS += $(shell python-config --libs)
+PYTHON_LIBS ?= $(shell python-config --libs)
+LIBS += $(PYTHON_LIBS)
endif
Thanks,
Paul
