[issue23287] ctypes.util.find_library needlessly call crle on Solaris
Jeff Quast added the comment: John, What do you think of the patches attached to http://bugs.python.org/issue20664 ? crle is not needed at all because the default library path is a constant on Solaris I don't believe this to be true, source? crle is absolutely needed to add additional library lookup paths on Solaris, did this recently change? crle is most certainly especially in regards to zones: a zone is unable to modify any of the system library paths, it wouldn't be able to install any new libraries in those given paths (/usr/lib and /lib are often shared read-only by the global zone), and crle must be used to add a library path to a writable mountpoint, such as /usr/local/lib, and often /opt and other various deviations must occur to accommodate gnu tools, etc. -- nosy: +jquast ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23287 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20664] _findLib_crle and _get_soname broken on latest SunOS 5.11
Jeff Quast added the comment: Submitting fix to fallback to alternate '/usr/bin/dump' path, confirmed using SmartOS. As for the issues writing to /lib and /usr/lib from a zone, and the request for An environment variable .. to override this functionality. I have to disagree: crle(1) already provides facilities to add additional paths. For example, to add `/usr/local/lib' to your dynamic library path, You would simply run, `crle -l /usr/local/lib -u'. I don't *that* belongs in python. -- keywords: +patch nosy: +jquast Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35362/opensolaris-ctypes-python-2.7.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20664 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
