[issue3588] sysconfig variable LINKFORSHARED has wrong value for MacOS X framework build

[Konrad Hinsen]

New submission from Konrad Hinsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

On a MacOS X framework build, the LINKFORSHARED variable obtained from 
distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars() has the value

  -u _PyMac_Error Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Python

The last item is incomplete, it needs to be prefixed with the path in 
which the Python framework is installed.

Looking at config/Makefile (from which Distutils takes the variables), I 
find

LINKFORSHARED=  -u _PyMac_Error 
$(PYTHONFRAMEWORKDIR)/Versions/$(VERSION)/$(PYTHONFRAMEWORK)

and

PYTHONFRAMEWORKDIR= Python.framework

One fix would be to use PYTHONFRAMEWORKINSTALLDIR instead of PYTHONFRAMEWORKDIR 
in the definition of LINKFORSHARED, but I don't know 
if this could have undesirable effects on the build process.

[issue3646] MacOS X framework install to non-standard directory fails

[Konrad Hinsen]

New submission from Konrad Hinsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

The file Mac/README in Python 2.6b3 says:

Installing in another place, for instance $HOME/Library/Frameworks if 
you have no admin privileges on your machine, has only been tested very 
lightly. This can be done by configuring with --enable-
framework=$HOME/Library/Frameworks. The other two directories, 
"/Applications/MacPython-2.6" and /usr/local/bin, will then also be 
deposited in $HOME. This is sub-optimal for the unix tools, which you 
would want in $HOME/bin, but there is no easy way to fix this right
now.


In reality, the framework is installed in the directory given on the 
command line, but the installer then wants to write the app to 
/Applications/MacPython-2.6 and crashes due to lack of write permission:
