Thank you for the support and the detailed explanation on why the native python
is necessary.
I'm now able to successfully compile all the extension modules on an Ubuntu
Machine where there isn't any Python packages installed.
I'll go ahead and compile the python on the default Ubuntu 16.04 which has both
python3 and python2.7. I'll update this thread with my results.
The below steps has been followed:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Building Python 3.5.2 natively for x86_64 HOST
-----------------------------------------------------------
./configure --enable-shared --disable-ipv6 --prefix=/opt/python3
make
sudo make install
export PATH=/opt/python3/bin:$PATH
#this is a work around for the missing library error, needs to find a better
solution
sudo ln -sf /opt/python3/lib/libpython3.5m.so.1.0 /usr/lib/libpython3.5m.so.1.0
sudo ldconfig
-----------------------------------------------------------
#Cros-compiling for ARM
-----------------------------------------------------------
make distclean
CONFIG_SITE=config.site CC=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc CXX=arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++
AR=arm-linux-gnueabihf-ar RANLIB=arm-linux-gnueabihf-ranlib
READELF=arm-linux-gnueabihf-readelf CFLAGS="-I${CROSS_PATH}/usr/include"
LDFLAGS="-L${CROSS_PATH}/usr/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I${CROSS_PATH}/usr/include"
./configure --enable-shared --host=arm-linux --build=x86_64-linux-gnu
--disable-ipv6 --prefix=/opt/arm-linux-gnueabihf-python
make
sudo PATH=/opt/python3/bin:$PATH make install
It would be quite helpful if the extension modules are not removed silently.
Unfortunately I do not have the know-how how to do this but would like to test
it once someone makes available.
Once again thanks a lot for the support all through out the day. I'll revert
back with the results of my testing in a while.
