New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com>: the testcase test_get_platform is not entirely correct for the OSX case.
Background: OSX supports fat binary builds (Apple calls those Universal Binaries). The testitem for OSX gives a false negative when you run the test with a Universal Binary build of Python on OSX. To get correct test results on OSX you'll have to patch a number of other variables as well, such as CFLAGS, because get_platform uses those to detect if you're running on a universal build. ---------- assignee: tarek messages: 84578 nosy: ronaldoussoren, tarek severity: normal status: open title: Lib/distutils/test/test_util: test_get_platform bogus for OSX _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5607> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
