Mike Beachy added the comment: Urgh. Re-reading this, I could barely understand what the hell I was saying.
The problem: 64 bit compiles will dump core when readline is used if they don't properly identify the presence of readline and use the system headers. The solution: fix autoconf to properly recognize when readline is present by providing configure's readline test program with all necessary prerequisites. caveat: The fix for issue 1703270 (already checked in post-2.5.1) works around this by hard coding the completion_matches prototype in Modules/readline.c, but the autoconf fix seems better long term. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1204> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
