jan matejek <jmate...@suse.cz> added the comment: Tarek, the error output is this: /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.5/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lpython2.6
the chdir is the problem - because in an environment where you don't have an existing Python installation, you will not find -lpython2.6. the linker from unixccompiler.py:link() is this: ['gcc', '-pthread', '-shared', '/tmp/pythontest_eosQ1d/tempt/tmp/tmphIMDH2/foo.o', '-L.', '-lpython2.6', '-o', '/tmp/tmppAsk00/foo.so'] and since you're in new temporary directory, -L. does not include libpython2.6 (unless you copy it in that directory or change -L. to the right place) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8335> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
