Building as shared > lib only became a part of standard python in release 2.3 - see > http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.4/whatsnew/node20.html I've committed some changes to try to use the shared library where available, while continuing to work if it isn't: * If distutils reports values for LIBDIR and LDLIBRARY, and the latter looks like a shared library name, then use -L$LIBDIR -l$LDLIBRARY (after suitable hacking on the library name). * Otherwise use -L$CONFIGDIR -lpython$VERSION. The latter case duplicates what we have done in past versions, so it should theoretically work as well (or poorly) as ever. The test conditions may still need fine-tuning though. I do not have a pre-2.3 Python to try it with --- would you test please? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
