No cross-compiling involved. 1) To debug a Python C extension I wrote a standalone C test program which of course needs to find "Python.h" and libpython*.* for building. I ran into trouble when I tried to build that program in a custom compiled debugging Python environment. 2) I need to recheck this, but it was a "pip install" for a package from pypi org. Probably numpy or pandas errored out with not being able to find "Python.h". I'll try and re-check. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/KXHEX6UGOMPWOWQPGD7YQTAWECR4Q3KS/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
