Dan Mick added the comment: So the original author of the code says it's "likely no longer relevant", and it's clearly wrong, but no one has touched this in six years?
Even moving the "linker[i] = self.compiler_cxx[i]" inside the if that checks for "env" would *still* limit the exposure of this bug significantly without affecting the mystery-reason-for-the-workaround... We probably spent a man-week on this bug. Small wonder why Python packaging continues to be met with utter terror. ---------- nosy: +Dan Mick _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8027> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
