David Edelsohn added the comment: $(BINLIBDEST)/config is equivalent to $(LIBPL) in Python 2.7, so Python 2.7 should be okay. Patch2 will not make test_distutils results worse, but the test results may not represent the true status of distutils on AIX if the matching Python version is not

Martin Panter added the comment: Patch 1 does not apply to 2.7. The offending commit 88a532a31eb3 was not made in that branch. Patch 2 may apply to 2.7, but I am not sure if it is needed or worthwhile. Again, the offending commit r86731 not made to 2.7. There is also a $(BINLIBDEST)/config

Martin Panter added the comment: It looks like the change from plain config to config- was made in Issue 9807 (r86731, 3.2). So the patch seems reasonable to me; it is just catching up with that change. This bug was marked for 2.7 as well. Is there anything that needs to be done for 2.7?

David Edelsohn added the comment: Let's start with this patch to revert the change mentioned in msg256136 to look for python.exp in Modules -- the test, the source for the file, and the location to delete the file. A follow-up patch will fix the data in _sysconfigdata.py. -- Added

Michael Felt added the comment: hmm. needs patch. For what? One comment says a change will be undone. If a patch is expected for src/builddir issue: a) I sinned - that is a new issue, and should be posted seperately. b) i do not know autotools well enough to solve the srcdir and builddir

Martin Panter added the comment: It looks like the Programs/python.exp change was done accidentally in revision 88a532a31eb3 (Issue 18093), so we should be safe reverting the relevant lines back to Modules/python.exp. The configure script currently sets
