New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>: The configure.in sets a default OPT of "-O" if none was set by the user, but I think that's wrong. The user could simply pass optimization flags as part of CFLAGS instead, and then the contents of OPT could conflict with that of CFLAGS (which is annoying to debug when you don't know what is happening exactly).
Besides, "-O" is hardly an useful default value for any compiler. I would advocate trimming down the magic and letting OPT empty/undefined if that's what the user asks for (and expects). What do you think? ---------- components: Build messages: 123695 nosy: barry, dmalcolm, laca, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: configure shouldn't set a default OPT type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10663> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
