aixtools added the comment: Although this is closed - it is not (yet) resolved, really.
ctypes does not compile on AIX 5.3, or AIX 6.1. Applying the patch posted (https://bugs.python.org/file17098/pyffi.patch) does get rid of most of the problems. However, to completely "fix" it I also copied as follows: cp -rp ../sourceforge/libffi/libffi-3.2.1/src/powerpc ./Python-2.7.8/Modules/_ctypes/libffi/src/powerpc make clean make There are still other issues - BUT - with this ctypes completes as a module of python. ---------- nosy: +aixto...@gmail.com versions: +Python 2.7 -Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6006> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
