It may well be used for building other apps. > ____________________________________________________________________ > > Sohnen-Moe Associates, Inc. > 3906 West Ina Road #200-367 > Tucson, AZ 85741-2295 > > email: sma at sohnen-moe.com Voice: 520.743.3936 > Website: http://www.sohnen-moe.com FAX: 520.743.3656 > ____________________________________________________________________ -- John _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs **= Email 2 ==========================** Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2003 09:45:04 +0000 From: John Poltorak Subject: Building Python Accoding to the docs, building Python requires these modules:- - ncurses (see http://dickey.his.com/ for more info, v5.2) - GNU Readline (Kai Uwe Rommel's port available from Hobbes or LEO, v2.1) - GNU GDBM (Kai Uwe Rommel's port available from Hobbes or LEO, v1.7.3) - zlib (derived from Hung-Chi Chu's port of 1.1.3, v1.1.4) - expat (from ftp://ftp.jclark.com/pub/xml/, v1.2) - GNU MP (Peter Meerwald's port available from LEO, v2.0.2) - GNU UFC (Kai Uwe Rommel's port available from LEO, v2.0.4) I'd like to automate the process, but need to make sure that each of the above are buildable. ncurses, zlib and expat are, I think gdbm and gmp are, but ISTR problems with readline... -- John _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs **= Email 3 ==========================** Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2003 11:07:50 -0700 (MST) From: "Sohnen-Moe Associates, Inc" Subject: Building readline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, You mentioned having some problem building readline. I just tried it and it built with gcc v3.2.1 with only a few minor warnings, and errors regarding .so outputs. By adding "--disable-shared" to the build.table entry for readline, it built with only the warnings. It works the same for gcc v2.8.1. Hmm. I suppose I ought to actually use readline in a program.... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0 OS/2 for non-commercial use Comment: PGP 5.0 for OS/2 Charset: cp850 wj8DBQE+fff25z5shEq8TYMRAr5yAJ99A6HHKBXmWaUNroNjR9cBkUJPiACfS1xy cQuU8RyzD2AZD9d2SUhJxHM= =tzpL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs
