Hi Martin,
Today, I had time to look into the AIX patch again. The launcher now
loads the shared libpython2.6.a dynamically on AIX. Also, I have
changed Build.py and bindepend.py in order to get the shared lib
copied to the distribution folder.
So everything works on the AIX machine where I work with pyinstaller.
This machine runs AIX 6.1.
I then moved the produced executables (both packaged as one file and
as a dir) to another AIX machine running AIX 5.2. On this machine the
generated binaries do not run:
-bash-3.00$ dist/test/test
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program dist/test/test because of the
following errors:
0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for test because:
0509-136 Symbol mkdtemp (number 41) is not exported from
dependent module /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o).
0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
'dump -Tv' command.
As you can see, the function 'mkdtemp' is missing from 'libc'.
Inspecting 'libc' on the two machines reveals that this is indeed a
difference:
AIX 5.2 machine:
--------
-bash-3.00$ dump -Tv /usr/lib/libc.a

Any ideas how to deal with this problem?
