Ned Deily added the comment: Sorry, it is no longer clear to me exactly what problem(s) and solution are being proposed here. When dealing with installation problems like this, we have to be *very* precise: here's what I started with on what platform, here are the contents of the relevant directories and/or files before I start, here are exactly the steps I took, here are the results I expected, and here are the results I observed. Using a downloaded tarball and the steps in @yaro-yaro's initial message, I see no change in /usr/lib64; note, there *may* have been Python .so files installed there by system packages but that should be irrelevant to building and installing your own Python. I also could not reproduce @jojo's recipe as best I understand it and don't see how it could produce any change in /usr/lib64. Changing the value of --libdir is a whole different matter and not relevant to the original problem. Also the title of the issue refers to DESTDIR and DESTSHARED but nowhere in the body of the issue a re these variables directly referenced, so I have to assume they aren't being explicitly set.
Unless someone can better demonstrate an actual problem here, I'm going to close this issue. ---------- status: open -> pending _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26971> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
