Thanks for asking! Last December I was thinking about this - and what would be the best way to proceed. The reply I liked best suggested working on this - outside of CPython "bugfixes" - perhaps later moving bits into the core. So, motivated by your question I opened an area in github - https://github.com/aixtools/pythonAIXDOC. a) I have done a quick re-write of the current README.AIX - with stress on re-write. b) I have several years experience with packaging Python for AIX (for which I use the IBM compiler) and also manage a Python-buildbot that uses gcc. What I don't want to do is just pour forth lots of notes re: things I have discovered and learned. c) I would appreciate hearing your experiences re: using Python on AIX. Report issues via pythonAIXDOC or my packaging forums (http://forums.rootvg.net/aixtools) and I will reply, study, etc.. as much as I have time to. The experiences (especially frustrations when it works this way (...) on platform Y, but not (the same, or at all) on AIX. Hope this helps! ---------- versions: +Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39798> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
