New submission from Shashwat Anand <anand.shash...@gmail.com>: 'readline' module fails to build on OS X in case of trunk and python 3.x. It have no issues with python 2.5 and 2.6 and python 2.7 alpha.
Here is the trace after running ./configure; make in trunk Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found: bsddb185 dl gdbm imageop linuxaudiodev ossaudiodev readline spwd sunaudiodev With that the uparrow-downarrow and other features fails which I suppose depends on 'readline' 07:31:51 l0nwlf-MBP:python-svn $ ./python.exe Python 2.7b1+ (trunk:79945M, Apr 11 2010, 07:14:54) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> t = 'test' >>> ^[[A^[[A^[[B^[[B 07:32:53 l0nwlf-MBP:CoreHD $ python3.2 Python 3.2a0 (py3k:79532, Apr 1 2010, 01:48:52) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import readline Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named readline >>> t = 'test' >>> ^[[A^[[A (pressing up-arrow for repeating the previous command fails) However, an interesting observation is, 07:34:00 l0nwlf-MBP:CoreHD $ python2.7 Python 2.7a4+ (trunk:78750, Mar 7 2010, 08:09:00) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import readline >>> t = 'test' >>> t = 'test' No such issue here, 'uparrow' is working, thereby completing the previous command on interpretor. The version is python2.7 alpha as you can see. So I assume some recent changes broke something, it was fine earlier. ---------- components: Build messages: 102807 nosy: l0nwlf, ronaldoussoren severity: normal status: open title: 'readline' module fails to build on OS X - some recent change broke it versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8365> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
