Hello,
A modification was made in setup.py, cvs rel 1.213 (see diff here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/python/python/dist/src/setup.py?r1=1.212&r2=1.213 ) which appears to be wrong. At least, on my system, the spwd module is never built anymore, because the if statement is never true.
Actually, the sysconfig doesn't contain *any* of the HAVE_XXXX vars that occur in pyconfig.h (I checked by printing all vars).
I don't really understand the distutils magic that is done in setup.py, but it appears to me that either the if statement is wrong (because the vars never exist) or distutils does something wrong by leaving out all HAVE_XXX vars from pyconfig.h.
Please advise? I want my spwd module back ;-)

PS I checked that pyconfig.h correctly #defines both HAVE_GETSPNAM and HAVE_GETSPENT to 1 on my system (Mandrake linux 10.1), so the rest of the configure script runs fine (it should, I created the original patches for it... see SF patch # 579435) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
