Because this worked, no deep reason. The initial framework builds were a big hack, because they were neither static nor shared builds (because the extensions were linked against the framework), so I had to find something that worked while hoping I wouldn't break too much on other platforms. In case anyone is interested in my opinion: I would scratch the whole configure/make suite and rebuild it from scratch. As others here have noticed, the OPT/EXTRA_CFLAGS pattern that Python adhered to has lost out the the CFLAGS/LDFLAGS pattern, and more such things. And this is important if people want to do recursive builds. But: it's a major undertaking to get this working, especially if you don't want to pull in libtool:-( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1628484> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
