Thanks for the suggested patch and sorry that it has not been replied to earlier. As of Python 3.7, the libffi source for Unix-y platforms is no longer "vendored" in Python source releases; building ctypes now requires an external copy of libffi, either as supplied by the system, a third-party distribution, or by building yourself. If changes to setup.py are still needed to build with a current external libffi, please feel free to reopen this issue with a pull request against the current master branch. ---------- nosy: +ned.deily resolution: -> out of date stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue18499> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
