Michael Felt added the comment: My - bad - this was largely a duplicate of three now closed issues: issue10656, issue16189, and issue25825
as far as the build process goes the issue is fixed. However, issue10656 is not yet "fully-finished" because "make distclean" does not complete successfully. Among other things it leaves Makefile and config.status behind. Question: re: issue10656 - shall I open a new issue, or reply (reopen) the original? issue16189 and issue25825 are largely duplicates, as far as I can tell. And unfortunately - "neither" is repaired. There are three (environment) variables that are used: BLDSHARED (during build - seems fixed), LDSHARED and LDCXXSHARED. Short summary: BLDSHARED is fixed per issue10656 LDSHARED is changed (issue16189 and issue25825), but still broken LDCXXSHARED - was, and is - correct in _sysconfigdata.py Here is what I have in the 'installed' state: PATCHED by hand! root@x064:[/data/prj/python/python-2.7.13]grep LDS /opt/lib/python2.7/_sysconfigdata.py 'BLDSHARED': './Modules/ld_so_aix xlc_r -bI:./Modules/python.exp -L/opt/lib', 'LDSHARED': '/opt/lib/python2.7/config/ld_so_aix xlc_r -bI:/opt/lib/python2.7/config/python.exp', What comes with 2.7.13 by default: root@x064:[/data/prj/python/python-2.7.13]grep LDS /opt/lib/python2.7/_sysconfigdata.py 'BLDSHARED': 'Modules/ld_so_aix xlc_r -bI:Modules/python.exp -L/opt/lib', 'LDSHARED': 'Modules/ld_so_aix xlc_r -bI:Modules/python.exp -L/opt/lib', This is where ld_so_aix is 'installed': /opt/lib/python2.7/config/ld_so_aix aixtools.python.rte File As python does now about where everything else in /opt/lib/pythonX.Y is, I think this still needs a small change - Modules/* is wrong in any case. FYI: In both cases this parameter is correct! 'LDCXXSHARED': '/opt/lib/python2.7/config/ld_so_aix xlc_r -bI:/opt/lib/python2.7/config/python.exp', Maybe this helps identify what needs fixing! Moving forward: a) close this issue - most of it is a duplicate - I will open a new issue for the issue (read my question) re: the cause/importance of all the 'Skipping' (an 'issue' because I see it once, or not at all, and then it goes away) b) comment on whether I should open a new issue, or comment to the closed issues. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27632> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
