Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Build Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Assigned to: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Summary: Solaris term.h needs curses.h Initial Comment: Solaris' term.h requires curses.h to be included first. This causes the configure script to emit lines about a bug in autoconf. From the autoconf mailing lists, their standard response is to fix the configure script, see e.g. http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2003-05/msg00118.html The following patch against 2.3 branch for configure and configure.in makes things a bit happier. Note that Include/py_curses.h already includes curses.h before term.h, this just fixes the breakage of configure. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: A.M.

Löwis (loewis) Date: 2003-10-31 10:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I find it confusing that the test for curses.h already refers to HAVE_CURSES_H; I think you should first check for curses.h, and then use HAVE_CURSES_H in the test for term.h I also agree that #ifdef is better than #if, even though it should not matter in an ISO C compiler (which replaces undefined symbols by 0 in an #if). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Anthony Baxter (anthonybaxter) Date: 2003-10-28 20:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Dunno if #ifdef is better or not - I just worked from the example in the attached autoconf mailing list message. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2003-10-28 08:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Should the #if be an #ifdef ? Looks fine to me, but I don't know much about autoconf. :-) I think Martin is the expert. Martin do you have an opinion? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=831574&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
