Sorry for duplicating this conversation - just going through my outstanding
emails. Feel free to ignore the one on python-dev.
What are the external libraries? This is probably documented somewhere, so
could you point me to it? (Sorry - my ignorance I know.)
gdbm and bsddb are python wrappers for C libraries that aren't part of OSX, if
you want to use them you have to install those C libraries manually (GNU DBM
and Sleepycat DB).
Is all this documented anywhere? (A description of how to do a "full"
build - all supported modules - on Mac OS X.)
* dl doesn't get build on OSX 10.6 when you use the default configure settings
because that results in a 64-bit binary and setup.py explicitly disables
building the dl module for 64-bit platforms. Apple has a patch that enables
building dl on 64-bit OSX, I haven't had time to check if that patch is
actually valid.
Ok. I would be interested in how to do a 32bit build.
"configure --enable-universalsdk=/ " results in a binary that is 32-bit and
runs natively on i386 and ppc machines.
Thanks. I discovered this after a bit of googling - it works for me and
results in a working build of Tkinter.
Michael> readline spwd sunaudiodev
readline requires an external library or python 2.6.5, 2.7 or 3.2.
Hmm... I have readline installed (via homebrew). Is that not sufficient?
That should work, but only when setup.py finds that readline install.
How do I configure that? It looks like the location needs to be in
PyBuildExt.compiler.lib_dirs - inherited from
distutils.command.build_ext.build_ext. It doesn't look very easily
configurable.
The documentation is a little "terse" (i.e. non-existent):
http://docs.python.org/distutils/apiref.html#module-distutils.command.build_ext
All the best,
Michael Foord
This one should work. Do you have a /Library/Framework/Tcl.framework? If so, what is the
output of "file /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Tcl", what OSX release are
you building on and what are the configure flags.
OS X 10.6.3.
$ file /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Tcl
/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Tcl: Mach-O universal binary with 2
architectures
/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Tcl (for architecture ppc): Mach-O
dynamically linked shared library ppc
/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Tcl (for architecture i386): Mach-O
dynamically linked shared library i386
My configure command is: ./configure --prefix=/dev/null --with-pydebug
On 10.6 the compiler generates 64-bit code by default, use:
configure --enable-universalsdk=/ ...
