So, I talked to Jürg about this. He said that the reason for the patch was that when he was building Python with --enable-shared and there wasn't an existing Python installation, it was bombing looking for -lpython2.5. Apparently, the -L path was getting screwed up and this patch was his way to fix it. But, if you guys have built on a fresh system with --enable-shared and everything worked fine, then let's just forget about this for now. On my testing, I was just building in my home directory with an existing 2.4 installation on the system. I can forward his email if anyone would like to see it. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
