In configure: 13830 if test "${ac_cv_lib_intl_textdomain+set}" = set; then 13831 echo $ECHO_N "(cached) $ECHO_C" >&6 13832 else 13833 ac_check_lib_save_LIBS=$LIBS 13834 LIBS="-lintl $LIBS" but then 13883 rm -f core conftest.err conftest.$ac_objext conftest_ipa8_conftest.oo \ 13884 conftest$ac_exeext conftest.$ac_ext 13885 LIBS=$ac_check_lib_save_LIBS ac_check_lib_save_LIBS is assigned before -lintl is added to LIBS, and then LIBS is unconditionally re-assigned to ac_check_lib_save_LIBS a little bit further down, which then doesn't have -lintl in it. I've included a patch that changes this to be: ... 13880 ac_cv_lib_intl_textdomain=no 13881 LIBS=$ac_check_lib_save_LIBS 13882 fi 13883 13884 rm -f core conftest.err conftest.$ac_objext conftest_ipa8_conftest.oo \ 13885 conftest$ac_exeext conftest.$ac_ext 13886 fi So that LIBS is only restored to the saved state if the check fails. I'm not sure if mucking with the configure file directly is a great idea, but this was the simplest thing I could think of that would work. ---------- nosy: +ebehar Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14160/configure_lintl.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6154> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
