Jesse Noller <jnol...@gmail.com> added the comment: Thanks mark - if POSIX semaphores aren't available, we're largely dead- on-arrival. I thought FBSD was at the point of enabling them by default - boo on me. See also: http://bugs.python.org/issue3770#msg73958 and http://bugs.python.org/issue3770#msg83495 - with martin's help last pycon I cut a lot of the "HAVE_BROKEN..." values to autoconf checks in configure.in.
I think the right way (however unpleasant) is to check to see if we have POSIX semaphores, period - if we don't, _multiprocessing should just not compile. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7272> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
