For the cross compile case (i686 build box -> ppc target), rather than
the setup.py/setup.cfg option in the TurboGears src/pkg dir, I thought
I'll try the basic method of using $HOME/.pydistutils.cfg first. So I
created one ($HOME/.pydistutils.cfg) with the following contents:
[build]
compiler=powerpc-unknown-linux-gcc
[bdist_egg]
pla_name=ppc
When I run:
easy_install --prefix=usr -s usr/bin -f . TG.egg
I get an error msg:
error: Setup script exited with error: don't know how to compile C/C++
code on platform 'posix' with 'powerpc-unknown-linux-gcc' compiler
I have 'powerpc-unknown-linux-gcc' in my path. Could it be that its not
picking up some include dirs etc.
I also tried the same with i686 build box -> i686 target, pointing to my
i686 gcc 'i686-pc-linux-gcc'...
[build]
compiler=i686-pc-linux-gcc
[bdist_egg]
pla_name=i686
I get the same error...
error: Setup script exited with error: don't know how to compile C/C++
code on platform 'posix' with 'i686-pc-linux-gcc' compiler
Any idea what may be wrong here...
Thanks much,
