New submission from Mark Summerfield:
When I try to build APSW (http://rogerbinns.github.io/apsw/index.html) with
Python 3.3 or 3.4 on Debian stable 64-bit I get the error output shown below.
I dug into the source and it seems that the problem is that
distutils/ccompiler.py's gen_preprocess_options() functions expects to get a
sequence of macros and each macro *must* be a 1 or 2 item tuple.
But for some reason during the APSW build it gets a 2 item list which it then
chokes on.
Now, the code really does need a tuple because in some cases it uses Python's %
print formatting option as in "-D%s=%s" % macro -- and this won't work if macro
is a list.
I solved this problem for me by adding two lines, shown here in context:
pp_opts = []
for macro in macros:
if isinstance(macro, list): # NEW
macro = tuple(macro) # NEW
I don't know how safe or wise a fix this is, but it did work for me for a
locally built (from www.python.org tarball) 3.3 and 3.4.
