awilfox added the comment: Bootstrapping a Linux environment based on musl libc from glibc host requires cross-compilation to the same architecture (for example, configure is --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-musl).
The Python core will build and link fine in this configuration; unfortunately, every module in sharedmods fails to link if the ABI is different, as Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py:732 uses sys.abiflags and the native Python is used. For example, my distribution ships with no ABI flags (libpython3.4.so), but if I use the default enabled PyMalloc (libpython3.4m.so), I will see: /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-foxkit-linux-musl/ld: cannot find -lpython3.4 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status during linking of all sharedmods. As I am relatively unfamiliar with distutils' internals I am quite unsure how to proceed to fix this, but am willing test any patches. For now, I just disable/enable PyMalloc and wide Unicode to match the ABI of the host computer. ---------- components: +Cross-Build -Build nosy: +Alex.Willmer, awilfox versions: +Python 3.4 -Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5404> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
