Lauri Tirkkonen added the comment: Patch attached to set CONFINCLUDEDIR to --includedir. There's additionally some hardcoded assumptions in sysconfig and distutils.sysconfig about the include paths, of which this patch fixes some.
What it doesn't address is sysconfig.get_path with 'include' or 'platinclude'. There 'include', however, were already broken if python was configured with --includedir ('platinclude' was correct because it was hardcoded, and pyconfig.h always installed to the same place). I think those should also be fixable by getting the correct directories from _sysconfigdata instead of hardcoding possible 'installation schemes' and trying some de-facto paths based on those. I suspect this is also a problem for library paths, but this issue is only concerned with includedir. I suspect the problem that 'CONFINCLUDEDIR' was trying to solve is separating platform-dependent headers from platform-independent ones, but it doesn't actually solve that problem correctly: pyconfig.h does not go in --includedir AND the hardcoded include path for pyconfig.h doesn't go in "python-config --includes" output. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +lotheac Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file36552/pyconfig-includedir.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue896330> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
