Category: Build Group: Python 2.3 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: David Dyck (dcd) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: 2.3.3 make fails build posix_openpty' Initial Comment: I'm trying to build 2.3.3 on an older slackware system that is still libc5 based. (gcc version egcs-2.91.66.1) configure / make reports errors after stripping warnings the error is reported as: ./Modules/posixmodule.c: In function `posix_openpty': ./Modules/posixmodule.c:2623: `I_PUSH' undeclared (first use in this function) ./Modules/posixmodule.c:2623: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ./Modules/posixmodule.c:2623: for each function it appears in.) pyconfig.h only defined HAVE_DEV_PTMX #define HAVE_DEV_PTMX 1 /* #undef HAVE_OPENPTY */ /* #undef HAVE__GETPTY */ (I have a recent 2.4.25-pre6 kernel so I do have /dev/ptmx that configure uses to check for HAVE_DEV_PTMX) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v.
