Continuing on with investigating Python 2.7 build problems, one problem I just discovered is a different installation on one 64-bit system (Debian Lenny) versus another (Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS).
I used gcc-4.5.1 on both systems, with no *PY* environment variables set. On Debian I got two directories: /usr/local/lib64/python2.7 /usr/local/lib/python2.7 and only the first had the "config" subdirectory. On Ubuntu I got only /usr/local/lib/python2.7 I see that the configure file has some architecture choices (--with-universal-archs=ARCH) but no explanation about the consequences. Can anyone explain the two different "default" installations I got? It seems to me I should force the Ubuntu-style installation by the "--with-universal-archs=64-bit" configure option, and I will try that on Debian while I await expert help. Thanks. -Tom _______________________________________________ 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
