Regarding previous question, build completes when using Setup, and changing *shared* to *static* but 'make install' fails. If I run 'make altbininstall' or 'make altmaninstall' thst works...actually they all work except any of the libinstall targets, which is probably because in the makefile all lib install targets run setup.py. Is there a special way to install python without setup.py _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
