Aki <akin...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: I have installed GNU binutil package to my machine to use GNU as. I re-run configure but configure somehow always found Sun as rather than GNU as even I saw GNU as first from my csh environment.
I temporalily renamed Sun as so that configure was forced to use GNU as. With such brute force trick, I finally managed to build Python 2.6.1 on Solaris/x86. It would be nice if ctypes module and configure handle this elegantly and amicably, instaed of arguing that Sun as is too old-fashined. But I don't have any good idea to deal with this so I need to leave this to Python developers. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4902> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
