Hum, you still need to provide the native python interpreter with the _path_ to the <target>-python-config executable that can be anywhere on the file system (its location is relative to the cross compiled build, not the native interpreter), so it seems that this contradicts your previous sentence saying "I don't think that identifying the target by some path is the right way to go". ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28833> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
