New submission from Patrick Gerken <patrick.ger...@computer.org>: When running the command install_lib, the command build_clib is not run. If a package contains clibs they can be dependencies for extension libs, at least that is stated in the module docstring of build_clib.
In real life you can see it when trying to run the command install_lib on the current reportlab2.3. The patch provided needs do be applied in the distutils dir directly with patch install_lib.py dependency.patch As requested, I asked on the mailing list first, whether this really is a bug. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2009-February/010974.html I am half finished writing a test case, that I'll append to this ticket later. ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils files: dependency.patch keywords: patch messages: 81892 nosy: do3cc, tarek severity: normal status: open title: Missing dependency in distutils build type: behavior versions: Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13064/dependency.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5243> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
