I was able to build Python 2.5 on Solaris 10 Sparc, Mac OS X PPC, Linux PPC/Intel, all 32bit and 64bit, shared and static, only with Bob's help. It's not a proof. It's not mathematical correct. But it works. Grab all your avalaible test platforms and try for yourself what Bob's patch will 'break', and report it. Sorry, but that meta discussions about correct builds are not what a bug report should be used for. Such improvements are up to developer forums where you can design "correct" Python build scripts and discuss them over and over again. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
