[BUGS] 9.0 Bug: cannot build against python3.1, with two versions of python in the environment
I discussed this report with James Pye already, and he beleives it's a configure script bug which should be fixed before release. Anyone capable of taking it on? Original Message Subject:[TESTERS] Configure/Build 9.0 rc1 - cannot build against python3.1, with two versions of python in the environment Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2010 13:12:13 -0400 From: Lou Picciano To: pgsql-test...@postgresql.org *[TEST REPORT]* *[Release]:* 9.0 RC1 *[Test Type]:* Install (Build) *[Test]:* Configure/Build 9.0 rc1 - cannot build against python3.1, with two versions of python in the environment *[Platform]:* Solaris 10 Sparc E450 Quad *[Parameters]:* --with-python \ * --with-includes=/usr/local/include/python3.1:/usr/local/include:/usr/local/ssl/include \ --with-libraries=/usr/local/lib/python3.1:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/ssl/lib \ CONFIGURE OUTPUT: - checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking Python configuration directory... /usr/lib/python2.4/config checking how to link an embedded Python application... -L/usr/lib -lpython2.4 -lresolv -lsocket -lnsl -lrt -ldl -lm configure: using CPPFLAGS= -I/usr/local/include/libxml2 -I/usr/local/include/python3.1 -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/ssl/include configure: using LDFLAGS= -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib/python3.1 [Failure]:* Can't seem to definitively config PG to a specific version of python - v3.1, at /usr/local/bin/python3 *[Results]:* configure seems to pick up python 2.4 configuration, but apparently links to (desired) python 3.1 libs. # ldd plpython2.so libpython2.4.so.1.0 => /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so.1.0 *[Comments]:* Tried first to see if configure picks up the PYTHONPATH env variable to find python's configuration. No joy.

I thought the issue was that no one had figured out how to do it, or that no one had written the patch, not that anyone thought the current behavior was particularly desirable. What happens if you say ALTER TABLE .. DROP CONSTRAINT or COMMENT ON CONSTRAINT? You just pick one at random?

Perhaps if the SQL committee had designed 'em, there'd be an issue; but they are Postgres-isms. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs

AFAICS, user has failed to ensure that only one Python version is visible in his environment.

It's for damn sure we didn't introduce those. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
