New submission from Jason Tishler <ja...@tishler.net>: The Cygwin build is failing during make install -- specifically, during the regen step:

Does anyone know how to convince python to think it is running out its build directory even though it is being found in the PATH. If not, does anyone have any other suggestions on how to resolve this problem? ---------- components: Build messages: 162634 nosy: jlt63, yselkowitz priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Cygwin install (regen) problem versions: Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15047> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
