New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg: With Python 2.7.8, ctypes builds fine on FreeBSD x86, but with Python 2.7.9, the build fails with:
*** WARNING: renaming "_ctypes" since importing it failed: build/lib.freebsd-8.3-RELEASE-p3-i386-2.7/_ctypes.so: Undefined symbol "ffi_call_win32" Since this is FreeBSD, there shouldn't really be any calls to ffi_call_win32() in the _ctypes module or libffi. Looking at the code changes in libffi/src/x86/ffi.c, it looks as if some of the #ifdefs for X86_WIN64 and X86_WIN32 were mixed up, causing calls to the Windows function to be compiled on FreeBSD x86, without also compiling the function definition in the same file. ---------- components: Build, ctypes messages: 232574 nosy: lemburg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python 2.7.9 ctypes module doesn't build on FreeBSD x86 versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23042> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
