Roumen Petrov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: One of the problems that I see in that LDFLAGS is Makefile variable and Makefile is part of distribution for posix build systems. If you set specific LDFLAGS and you want to distribute own python build user will get you specific settings. One another environment variable is OPT (if compiler don't accept -R XXX may be -Wl,-rpath,XXX ?) and we may use it. Also OPT environment variable is also Makefile variable and user specific settings will go into distribution too :( .
I quick look into distutils code show that sysconfig.py don't parse LDFLAGS and append environment variable LDFLAGS as is to the ldshared variable. So the first question is why setup.py parse only -L flags instead to pass variable value as is (aka sysconfig.py). The second question is why LDFLAGS is a Makefile variable ? For now I would like to know if you set on Solaris suitable LD_RUN_PATH(for the build) and LD_LIBRARY_PATH (when run) did you succeed to build and run python ? ---------- nosy: +rpetrov _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4010> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
