While chasing down last night's failure on buildfarm member longfin,
I came across an interesting factoid. If you just do
./configure --enable-shared
make
make install
in unmodified Python sources, what you will get is an install tree in
which libpython.so (or local equivalent such as .dylib) is installed
in /usr/local/lib, while libpython.a is installed in a directory named
like /usr/local/lib/python3.5/config-3.5m. I've verified this behavior
on both Linux and macOS.
Wow, these modules have uncovered a number of cans of worms.
In short: I propose replacing all of this logic with "if there's something
in $python_libdir that has the right name to be a python shared library,
use that, else try the same in $python_configdir, else fail". Thoughts?
Seems reasonable.
