ddve...@ucar.edu added the comment: This is still an issue in Python 2.7.3 but there is a quick manual workaround. I know it's trivial and one can easily develop it from what is said in the thread or maybe looking at the patches, but for reference this is a nice recipe as oppose to digging through many messages
1) build as usual, but redirect the output/error stream in a file, for example if your shell is bash (I find this to always be a good idea): make > make.log 2>&1 2) Towards the end of make.log there will be the following message. If you don't see this message, you don't have this problem, but possibly a different one: Failed to build these modules: dbm 3) execute grep "\-o .*/dbmmodule.o" make.log This will find a compiler line. Cut, paste and and execute that command 4) grep "\-o .*/dbm.so" make.log This will find another compiler line. Cut, paste and and execute that command, ADDING (this is essential) -lgdbm_compat 5) (optional) you may want to remove dbm_failed.so (in the same directory where the previous bullet creates dbm.so) ---------- nosy: +ddve...@ucar.edu _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4483> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
