Antonio Cavallo <a.cava...@cavallinux.eu> added the comment: Actually I think the problem (see the attached file susebuild.log) is in the module time.so: during the build the python interpreter has not access to it (it is dynamically loaded) and it fails.
If that works is because an already python is set in the system (and the ./configure prefix is set to /usr): on the suse build server the system is regenerated from scratch every time making possible to catch this sort of side effects. This way to build it is called continuous integration and it works forcing a hands-off approach to the build-install-test cycle (I cannot stress enough about the impressive work done by the SuSE people). I'll fire tonight a new build on the suse build server with the latest patch and a small smoke test (is should catch the most obvious errors). But are you convinced about the need for the "import pdb; pdb.set_trace ()"? If everything goes fine the latest build should be in: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/cavallo71:/python-opt Moreover there are few external modules compiled using this "new" interpreter (imaging and setuptools at the moment): this should give a reasonable confidence the distutils is not broken after changes. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3992> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
