Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: Ned: the patch does have a (positive) effect when building the OSX installer: the build-installer script creates private builds of a number of libraries, but setup.py can detect other libraries (such as libintl) as well and we don't guard against that at the moment.
Skip: I'm +0 on including this functionality, but haven't looked at the patch yet. To be honest I'd must rather remove /opt/local and /sw entirely from setup.py and add new configure flags to specify the location of a number of libraries (e.g. 'configure --with-sleepycat-db=/opt/local'). Explicit configure flags is what other OSS packages seem to use to specify that you like to use a library that is not in /usr or /usr/local. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8406> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
