New submission from Song Ma: In my platform I have to disable Unicode support in Python 2.5.1. The "configure" file provided a option "--enable-unicode=no" to allow me to do so. However, If I ran the configure with that option and then make, the following error showed: Python/ast.c:3168: undefined reference to `PyUnicode_DecodeRawUnicodeEscape' Python/ast.c:3170: undefined reference to `PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscape' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [python] Error 1
Python 2.4.4 can be compiled with this option and works well. Since "ast.c" was newly introduced in 2.5.1. Maybe we need put MACRO "Py_USING_UNICODE" in ast.c for function "decode_unicode()". Otherwise it needs to modify the "configure" file to forbid "--enable-unicode=no". However in ast.c "decode_utf8()" is using "Py_USING_UNICODE" to make it "pluggable" for not supporting utf8. Why not do the same thing for "decode_unicode()"? ---------- components: Build, Unicode messages: 61573 nosy: songma severity: urgent status: open title: Python 2.5.1 compile failed with configure option "--enable-unicode=no" type: compile error versions: Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1915> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
