Missing libpython2.4.so during build of python 2.4.2 on AIX 5.1
Hi folks, maybe somebody can help. I am trying to build python 2.4.2 on AIX 5.1 with gcc 3.3.2 The build option for python are: $ ./configure \ --enable-unicode \ --enable-shared \ --with-gcc \ --mandir=/usr/local/man \ --infodir=/usr/local/info After make i see a libpython2.4.a in /usr/local/lib/python2.4/config but not an libpython2.4.so . Even the libpython2.4.a will not be installed into /usr/local/lib >From looking at the Makefile i was not not able to determine the option which might be missing to get a shared library of python. Any hints ? Hajo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Define installation directory for python
Task: build and install python 2.5.1 on AIX 5.3 to /opt/python2.5 with the subdirectories: ./lib ./bin ./include ./man ./info a.s.o The ./bin ./man are created fine but for ./lib & ./include the structure is /opt/python2.5/lib/python2.5 /opt/python2.5/include/python2.5 where i would like to have only /opt/python2.5/lib and /opt/ python2.5/include Looking at the make install output i see that setup.py is using a option called --install-platlib but how do i set this option during configure ? Or do i have to patch the setup.py ? Any hints tia Hajo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
pyc file usage in a multi OS environment ( newbe question)
Hi folks, i have an failover environment for a python application which can fail-over to a AIX, Sun or Linux Box. At the moment the python interpreter ( 2.4.2 on all platforms ) and the application are installed localy but all data and configuration are on a shared location ( NFS/GPFS) So far no problem. But the user are asking to get so called eggs installed which looks like some python source code files and some metadata. >From the administration point of view it would be a mess to install and maintain these - eggs - on all platforms. So the question arise: Can i install python code in a shared location so this code can be loaded either from a AIX, Linux or a SunOS box ? Since the .py file are plain python scripts i assume that these are not causing any trouble but what about the .pyc file ? ( Which i could not figure out what they are acutelly for - My knowledge about python is more or less a drop of water within the python ocean ) tia Hajo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
