Category: Build Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 5 Submitted By: Guido Ostkamp (ostkamp) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Python 2.5b2 fails to build on Solaris 10 Initial Comment: Hello, I tried to build Python 2.5b2 on Solaris 10 with the Sun Workshop Compiler, which fails. Please see the attachment for a complete log in several stages. Here is a short summary: * build/temp.solaris-2.10-sun4us-2.5/libffi/include/ffi.h contains illegal C-syntax __attribute(...) This might be legal for GCC, but not for other compilers. * Even if this is removed, there are other fatal compiler errors in the _ctypes module later on. * The build process seems to invoke _cursesmodule.c. This contains the use of a function mvwgetnstr(). This function does not exist in /usr/lib/libcurses.so. * The build process fails to link with libcurses.so. The Python 2.4.3 release fails for the same reasons regarding the curses problems, but the _ctypes stuff did not exist in this form. I would appreciate, if these bugs could be fixed.

I don't know that any developers have access to the sun workshop compiler. We have a Solaris 10 box, but it only has gcc AFAIK. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1528620&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
