New submission from Benedikt Morbach: At http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/1043cc2cb0ff/Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py#l247 build_ext.py compares sys.executable against sys.exec_prefix.
When cross compiling cpython, it notices that the interpreter running the build is located at exec_prefix and concludes that it is building a third-party module. Thus, it passes '-L{HOST_LIBDIR}', instead of '-L.', which breaks the build. The attached patch reverses the logic, checking if sys.executable resides in ${PWD} and assuming a third-party module otherwise. This should also fix http://bugs.python.org/issue16326 ---------- assignee: eric.araujo components: Cross-Build, Distutils, Extension Modules, Library (Lib) files: 0001-make-sure-to-pass-L.-when-building-standard-extensio.patch keywords: patch messages: 197277 nosy: Benedikt.Morbach, eric.araujo, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: distutils/command/build_ext passes wrong linker flags type: compile error versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file31674/0001-make-sure-to-pass-L.-when-building-standard-extensio.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18976> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
