hi, I'm trying to make a local install of python 2.5 on AIX and I'm getting some trouble with _curses.
Here is how I tried to compile it : export BASE=/usr/local/python251 cd Python.2.5.1 ./configure --prefix=${BASE}/\ LDFLAGS="-L\${BASE}/lib/"\ PPFLAGS="-I\${BASE}/include/"\ make make test make altinstall and the compilation stop with the following pb : ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: _unctrl ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .__fixsfsi ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .setsyx ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ._setqiflush ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .initscr32 ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: wacs_map ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ._getsyx ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .getattrs ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32attrset ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32insch ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .p32echochar ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32echochar ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .box32 ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32addch ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32attroff ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .w32attron ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information. *** WARNING: renaming "_curses" since importing it failed: No such file or directory error: No such file or directory make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1. Stop. I've compiled ncurses-5.6 in ${BASE}/lib but this haven't solved the pb. Any clue ? Best regards -- BL -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
