New submission from ddve...@ucar.edu: This is related to Issue17085 and Issue1646
My system is a cluster Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago) and it happens to have /usr/include/linux/tipc.h but probably tipc disabled in the kernel for some reasons which I ignore. There is little interest and no time from the sysadministrators to investigate TIPC, or to remove unneeded files or packages. When I configure and build Python 2.7.3, it seems to build correctly. However the test suite crashes as described in Issue17085. Therefore, I want to rebuild Python 2.7.3 with TIPC disabled. Unfortunately, configure seems to ignore all of the followings: ./configure --without-tipc ./configure --without-TIPC HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H=0 ./configure HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H=0 ./configure HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H=0 (for the record, my other configure options are --enable-shared --with-system-expat --prefix=my-path) I also tried to manually editing config.status as follows: --- config.status.orig 2013-01-31 09:24:04.109311726 -0700 +++ config.status 2013-01-31 09:28:28.397660288 -0700 @@ -854,7 +854,7 @@ D["HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H"]=" 1" D["HAVE_NETPACKET_PACKET_H"]=" 1" D["HAVE_SYSEXITS_H"]=" 1" -D["HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H"]=" 1" +D["HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H"]=" 0" D["HAVE_SPAWN_H"]=" 1" D["HAVE_DIRENT_H"]=" 1" D["HAVE_TERM_H"]=" 1" then run it and check that pyconfig.h has #define HAVE_LINUX_TIPC_H 0 (which it did). Running make and make test after this, produces exactly the same issue as described in Issue17085. Is there a way to force configure to ignore TIPC? ---------- components: Build messages: 181037 nosy: ddve...@ucar.edu priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Disable TIPC in configure versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17092> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
