Category: Build Group: Feature Request >Status: Closed >Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: Steve Chaplin (stevech) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: README build instructions for fpectl Initial Comment: configure.in supports the option '--with-fpectl' However, the "Configuration options and variables" section in the Python-2.3.3/README file mentions many options, but does not mention --with-fpectl I think the README should contain a few lines saying what the default setting is and why you may want to switch it on or off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2006-03-17 19:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Added the question about fpectl to PEP 356, this will be resolved before 2.5. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2006-02-20 12:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Waaa, the correct thing to is to remove the --with-fpectl from configure! I've been meaning to post to python-dev for a while now proposing the ripping out of this code. It's just not useful any more. At any rate, I am actively opposed to advertising its existence more widely. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Georg Brandl (birkenfeld) Date: 2006-02-20 10:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 Added a note in rev. 42512. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=872175&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
