Category: Installation Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Georg Schwarz (gschwarz) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: endianness detection fails on IRIX 5.3 Initial Comment: Configuring python 2.3.4 on IRIX 5.3 fails as follows: checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... unknown configure: error: unknown endianness presetting ac_cv_c_bigendian=no (or yes) will help *** Error code 1 The problem is that the respective defines are in sys/ endian.h, which is not being included in the test code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2005-01-29 15:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Unfortunately, there is not much we can do about this (with acceptable efforts); we use the AC_C_BIGENDIAN macro of autoconf which probably needs to be changed. It would be best if you could report this problem to autoconf. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1070140&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
