Éric Araujo added the comment: Sorry for being out of touch. I’m fine with the new feature here and now; we still have the deprecation process if we want to make both get_config_h_filename and get_makefile_filename private later (as implementation details), or we could have them return None

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Barry's request looks reasonable. Any build information will have platform specificities to it. On the other hand, this begs the question of why you want to access the Python makefile at all. Is there any information in there that isn't currently exposed? I

[issue9877] Expose sysconfig._get_makefile_filename() in public API

New submission from Barry A. Warsaw : sysconfig.get_config_h_filename() returns the path of pyconfig.h. The Makefile is also used to return values from sysconfig but it's path is hidden in a non-public method, for no good reason that I can think of. Therefore, sysconfig._get_makefile_filenam
