Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-01-25 22:07 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO That should have worked. Can you please debug the build process yourself a bit. It will be very tedious to communicate individual commands, then wait a day, communicate the next command. Start looking at the command immediately before the mv. It should have been a "makesetup" invocation, which should have produced config.c which it then tried to move. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Orlando Irrazabal (oirraza) Date: 2007-01-25 15:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=876766 Originator: YES I downloaded with eclipse (subclipse addin) and then ftp to my aix machine.

Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-01-25 07:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO oirraza: when you say "I downloaded", what precisely do you mean? The only sensible way of downloading it is through subversion checkout, i.e. "svn co http:...". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Orlando Irrazabal (oirraza) Date: 2007-01-25 01:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=876766 Originator: YES Thomas, i downloaded the subversion maintenance branch from http://svn.python.org/projects/python/branches/release25-maint/ but when i run ./configure fails with the below error message [...] mv: cannot rename config.c to Modules/config.c: No such file or directory ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Thomas Heller (theller) Date: 2007-01-24 22:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=11105 Originator: NO There seem to be three separate compilation errors: 1. (build/temp.aix-5.3-2.5/libffi/include/ffi.h", line 221.3: 1506-166 (S) Definition of function ffi_closure requires parentheses) >This looks like the compile does not understand the __attribute__((...)) syntax. 2. In _ctypes_test.c, lines 61/68/75: The source uses C++ comments instead of C comments. 3. The compiler does not seem to support bit fields in structures with type 'short'. For issue 1: oirraza, can you try the compilation with '__attribute__((...))' removed? Issue 2: is fixed now in SVN. Issue 3: Hm, I don't actually know how to approach this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-01-18 21:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO oirraza, can you please try the subversion maintenance branch for Python 2.5 instead and report whether the bug has there? It is at http://svn.python.org/projects/python/branches/release25-maint/ Thomas, can you please take a look at this? If not, unassign. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1637120&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
