I now ran 'make' after applying the patches to have the importlib.h recreated. This setup looks a bit fragile to me. I think it would be better to make creation of the importlib.h an explicit operation that has to be done in case the Python code changes (e.g. by creating a make target build-importlib.h), with the Makefile only warning about a needed update instead of failing completely. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14605> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
