[issue46683] Python 3.6.15 source tarball installs 3.6.8?

2022-02-08 Thread German Salazar


German Salazar  added the comment:

So, help me understand, please. 


if I use "--enable-shared":
the build produces a rather small python executable; but, 
the build produces a dynamic library, too
and the path to the dynamic library must be included into LD_LIBRARY_PATH for 
the python executable to work correctly.

if I do NOT use "--enable-shared"
the build produces a larger python executable; and,
it does not produce a dynamic library, but
it produces an static library.
Does this mean that I do not have to worry about setting up LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

In the non-shared, static case, I thought the static library would be inside 
the executable, but, funny enough, I noticed that the python executable is 
smaller than the static library, so...I am confused. 

I would like to have 3.6, next to 3.7 and 3.8 with minimal setup, thus the 
static route.

Please advise.

Pre-post-edit: you are right, just saw your answer as I was typing this one. 


Aaaa

./python --version

is not enough, I guess I need to properly setup PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and 
possibly PKG_CONFIG_PATH.

Sorry for the bother, guys. All is good. My apologies and thank you very much 
for the super fast response, it prompted to question and double question what I 
was doing.

German Salazar  added the comment:

I hear you, but I continue to need 3.6 for a bit longer.
I am on Linux, Centos 7; building from sources in a sandbox, no installation 
conflict with any else...

How do you confirm that the tarball indeed contains that it says? 

I build it and then I do "./python --version" and I get 3.6.8, instead of 
3.6.15   

I also have 3.7, and 3.8 installs (I also need them) and working on installing 
3.9 and 3.10

Downloaded the XZ one:

I am currently building the Gzipped one, let's see what it turns out.
