New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com>:
Python 2.7 and 3.6 embed a copy of libffi 3.1, whereas libffi 3.2.1 was released on November 12, 2014. Should we update libffi? I'm talking about the directory Modules/_ctypes/libffi/. It seems like Fedora 29 still uses libffi 3.1: $ rpm -q libffi libffi-3.1-18.fc29.x86_64 Note: Not only we vendor a copy of libffi and we also modify it :-/ Hopefully, libffi copy has been removed from Python 3.7! ---------- components: Build messages: 330784 nosy: vstinner priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Update libffi dependency to 3.2.1? versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35361> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
