I've had to create a patch for Solaris to python.
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7867
The changes consist of applying a small (< 1 KB) patch downloaded from the
python web site to configure.in, then remaking the configure script.
Python's configure.in is quite large (107 KB) and the resulting 'configure'
script, along with the files in the automte.cache directory (which is not safe
to remove) are quite large
sage subshell$ hg status
M SPKG.txt
M spkg-install
? patches/autom4te.cache/output.0
? patches/autom4te.cache/traces.0
? patches/configure
? patches/configure.in
? patches/configure.in.Solaris.patch
If I check all the changed files in, there is about 1 MB. In comparison, the
patch to configure.in I downloaded from the Python web site is < 1 KB.
Do the auto generated files need to be checked in?
