Hiren Vadalia added the comment: I did some more digging into this and I found something strange: So while compiling Python, it downloads externals from http://svn.python.org/projects/external/ Above site has many version of openssl so I looked into all openssl directory and found that from openssl version 0.9.8g we have ‘buildinf_amd64.h’ file under http://svn.python.org/projects/external/openssl-0.9.8g/crypto/ till openssl version 1.0.2f and after that we don’t have ‘*_amd64.h’ file under openssl-*/crypro directory and that is the reason 64 bit build is failing when user tries to compile Python 2.7.13 using PC\VS9.0 build scripts + Visual Studio 2008.
Since all openssl source on http://svn.python.org/projects/external/ is pre-configured, don’t you guys think we should have *_amd64.h file under openssl-*/crypto directory? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31120> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
