You may want to have a look at the Setup files we're using in eGenix PyRun, which uses them to force static builds of the various built-in extensions. Look for these files: PyRun/Runtime/Setup.PyRun-2.7 PyRun/Runtime/Setup.PyRun-3.4 in the source archives: http://www.egenix.com/products/python/PyRun/ > Otoh, I would like to get rid off the setup.py altogether (/me ducks ...). Why ? It's great for finding stuff on your system and configuring everything without user intervention (well, most of the time :-)). -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Jan 23 2015) >>> Python Projects, Coaching and Consulting ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC Plone/Zope Database Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::::: Try our mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
