I do "out of tree" builds (I think that is the right term). I make anempty directory, cd into it, and then do: <path to src directory>/configurefollowed by make. This works on most open source pages. It appears tobe very close to working with Python 2.7.1 but the problem is that it assumes ld_so_aix is in the source tree but it is in the build tree.I did an "in tree" build using basically just ./configure && make and so far (I'm still testing) that has worked fine. | |||

I tried with trunk (python 3.2) on AIX:./build/configure --with-pydebug --without-computed-gotosmakeand that worked correctly.Not sure with python 2.7. | |||

Basically the same as Tristan's patch, with a little improvement to not rely on PATH to find makexp_aix within ld_so_aix.Thanks! | |||

The idea of the patches makes sense to me.Embedding the name of whatever directory Python was built in into the installed version ofModules/ld_so_aix.in does not seem very clean to me. Is there another way of doing this? Perhaps a file copy or symlink? | |||
| msg279475 -(view) | Author: Martin Panter (martin.panter)* | Date: 2016-10-26 01:14 | |
Actually, why do you remove $(srcdir) forModules/python.exp? This code was added inr88426; see <https://bugs.python.org/issue941346#msg128586>. | |||
| msg279526 -(view) | Author: Michael Haubenwallner (haubi)* | Date: 2016-10-27 06:32 | |
Modules/python.exp is generated at build-time, thus does not belong to $(srcdir). | |||
| msg281196 -(view) | Author: Martin Panter (martin.panter)* | Date: 2016-11-19 03:18 | |
Okay I will assume that $(srcdir) reference was just due to a mistake or bad cargo-culting then.Will commit this soon unless anyone has a good idea to avoid embedding @abs_srcdir@. | |||
