New submission from Jack Howarth <howa...@bromo.med.uc.edu>: The libpython3.0.a created for Python 3.0.1 isn't a normal static library.

This bug in ar will be fixed in the next Xcode and the abnormal static library that python creates will no longer be able to serve as a substitute for a true static library. The libpython#.#.#.a files in config should be made into normal static libraries for all the currently supported versions of python when built as frameworks. ---------- components: Macintosh messages: 83792 nosy: jhowarth severity: normal status: open title: Darwin framework libpython3.0.a is not a normal static library type: behavior versions: Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5514> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
