New submission from neil pop <elisaturi...@gmail.com>:
Hello,
I tried making python 3.7.2 on linux mint without libffi set into my
LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR (usr/local/include) but set into my bashsrc which is
basically a profile with export LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR="-Ipath/to/libff/include"
however when i try making python after configuring it (i tried also passing
that LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR as an argument for the config part) then i get cannot
build ctypes as there is no ffi.h header detected.
So what i did is that i modified the python setup at line 1989: ffi_inc =
[sysconfig.get_config_var("LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR")] to ffi_inc =
["path/to/libffi/include"] and ran the configure then the make and voilà,
ctypes are now compiled. So i was wondering is there a way to setup
LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR so it get returned by
sysconfig.get_config_var("LIBFFI_INCLUDEDIR") (since it clearly doesn't) ?
Cheers,
Elisa
