So, after trying various ways to add that flag before lpython in setup.py, I stripped all --allow-shlib-undefined --no-allow-shlib-undefined feom the Makefile, ran make clean, and make. I still get the following error: Modules/python.o \ -lc -ldl -lm -L. -lpython2.7 -lm ./libpython2.7.so: undefined reference to `sincos' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [python] Error 1 Should I repost this to the dev mailing list? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
