New submission from Skip Montanaro <s...@pobox.com>: The topic of the vileness of Fink or MacPorts came up in python-dev when discussing building a Mac installer. I remembered that a couple /sw and /opt/local directories are searched unconditionally, making it a bit more challenging for someone to create a framework build which didn't rely on one or the other.
The attached makes the addition of /sw/... or /opt/local/... directory searches conditional on the presence of /sw/bin or /opt/local/bin in PATH. I don't have more time to expand upon the concept more, but it might also be useful to exclude other platform-dependent optional directories from searching (such as /opt/sfw for Solaris). ---------- components: Build messages: 103181 nosy: skip.montanaro severity: normal status: open title: Make some setup.py paths exclude-able type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8406> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
