//////////// message beg ///////////////////////// Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix> Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix> Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>] Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams ImportError: No module named encodings.utf_8 Aborted (core dumped) //////////// message end ///////////////////////// This is because mbstowcs() on cygwin is broken, so _Py_wreadlink() in Modules/getpath.c is also broken. I'll attach two patches to fix this. I don't know which is better. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: py3k_getpath_v1.patch keywords: patch messages: 72831 nosy: ocean-city severity: normal status: open title: cannot lanch python.exe via symbolic link if HAVE_BROKEN_MBSTOWCS versions: Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11432/py3k_getpath_v1.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3813> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
