New submission from Anselm Kruis: I just had an issue rebuilding 2.7.9 with openssl-1.0.1m. Because this openssl version is not yet available from svn.python.org, I used the original source from https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1m.tar.gz. Of course Perl is installed.
Problem The build fails, because the created makefile ms/nt.mak contains rules for excluded ciphers ("RC5", "MDC2", "IDEA"). The documentation in PCbuild/readme.txt anticipates a similar compile error: "You may have to manually remove $(OBJ_D)\i_*.obj from ms\nt.mak if the build process complains about missing files or forbidden IDEA." Obviously manual patching of ms\nt.mak is inconvenient. A clean solution: invoke the openssl Configure script with appropriate arguments: perl Configure no-rc5 no-mdc2 no-idea ... The attached patch changes PCbuild/build_ssl.py to add the no-xxx args to the Configure command line. Python 3.x already contains a similar fix (changeset bcf93e3766e8). ---------- components: Build files: 2.7-build_ssl.patch keywords: patch messages: 241096 nosy: anselm.kruis, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Windows build error using original openssl source type: compile error versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file39034/2.7-build_ssl.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23963> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
