New submission from Dennis Clarke: While compiling from sources I see in the process :

The absence of the flag -m64 causes a 32-bit compile here and thus the compile fails. ---------- components: Build messages: 266458 nosy: blastwave priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: python 3.5.1 will not compile because libffi module uses wrong CFLAGS type: compile error versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27133> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
