[issue15964] SyntaxError in asdl when building 2.7 with system Python 3
Eli Bendersky added the comment: `make touch` was added to the bots in #19106 and is now also recommended in the devguide for folks running into this problem. IMHO this is all we need here, because there's no point toiling to make the auto-generation scripts in every version to work with any other version of Python. It's error prone and keeps us back (there's no reason not to use modern Python practices in the ASDL generator of 3.4, say, and instead cling to Python 2.4). So I'm going to close this issue in a few days unless new feedback emerges. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15964 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Roger Serwy added the comment: I use Arch Linux which has /usr/bin/python as 3.3.0. I can confirm that touch Include/Python-ast.h Python/Python-ast.c fixes the problem.

[issue15964] SyntaxError in asdl when building 2.7 with system Python 3
Chris Jerdonek added the comment: So can you find out why asdl_c.py actually printed this error? I collected some additional information. Here is the beginning of Parser/asdl_c.py: #! /usr/bin/env python Generate C code from an ASDL description. And in the scenario of this issue I have-- $ python -bash: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python: No such file or directory But-- $ /usr/bin/env python -V Python 3.2.3 Some more data: $ /usr/bin/env python -c import sys; print(sys.executable) /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python $ echo $PATH /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/texbin $ which python /opt/local/bin/python $ /opt/local/bin/python -c import sys; print(sys.executable) /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python It's not immediately clear to me why running `python` doesn't find python in the second $PATH entry even though `which python` does. Also, creating a new terminal doesn't seem to exhibit the same problem, so the error state may not be fully reproducible after all (at least on my machine). In any case, Christian's work-around does resolve the issue for this particular error state while other solutions don't. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15964 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue15964] SyntaxError in asdl when building 2.7 with system Python 3
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: The case that python is a Python 3 binary is not a supported installation (see PEP 394). asdl_c.py works on both 2.x and 3.x unmodified in the 3.x branch, however, backporting this to 2.7 would be a new feature (support for building on systems where python is Python 3). The proper work-around is to make touch after a hg update to bring the files in the right order. #15923 is really a separate issue since it complains about an actual bug in asdl_c.py. So I propose to close this as won't fix. -- nosy: +loewis ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15964 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
