New submission from Björn Pollex <bjoern.pol...@soundcloud.com>: When building Python 3.7.2 using pyenv on MacOS, it will use `--with-openssl` to configure OpenSSL. With that option, the compiler options for OpenSSL will be passed via `OPENSSL_*` variables, rather than normal compiler flags (e.g. `OPENSSL_LDFLAGS` vs. `LDFLAGS`). When compiling an extension, these flags will not be propagated by `distutils`, and so an extension that depends on OpenSSL fails to compile.
I'm not sure what the expected behavior here is. Should the package handle this by querying `sysconfig` directly in `setup.py`? Or should this be handled automatically by `distutils`? Specifically, I ran into this issue when trying to install `mysqlclient-python` (https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python). ---------- messages: 355299 nosy: Björn Pollex priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: OPENSSL_* flags not propagated to extensions during build versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38577> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
