Sébastien Sablé <sa...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: [rant: grrr, AIX is really a crappy platform; no consistency between releases; there are dozens of obvious bugs like that... anyway...]
The fact that there is no 64 bits objects in libbsd.a on AIX 6.1 is a documented bug: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg1IZ45155 They recommend to install patch APAR IZ45155. I suppose there is nothing more we can do if the function is not available on the system. Maybe we could display a warning or error message and suggest to upgrade to a more recent patchlevel if we are on AIX and flock cannot be found? Though if the installation is relatively up to date, there should be no problem. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4026> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
