New submission from Antonio Cavallo <a.cava...@cavallinux.eu>: Hi, I've seen the code change in /python/trunk/configure.in (rev. 74072): it enforces a specific autoconfig version (2.61) in order to build python.
Unfortunately OpenSuSE 11.1 (mainstream at time of writing) has an updated version of autoconf 2.63 (and I think is true for Mandriva as well). Wouldn't be better to force the 2.61 being the minimal version for autoconf allowing more up-to-date versions to be used? You can have a look into http://pyvm.sourceforge.net/ where continuous build of the python interpreter are stored for further references. ---------- components: Build messages: 90980 nosy: alexandre.vassalotti, cavallo71 severity: normal status: open title: configure.in forces specific autoconf version type: compile error versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6585> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
