Mac OS X painless compilation #38290
Comments
under Mac OS X 10.1, python builds without a hitch. I'd think that it would also build under 10.2 as well, although I don't know because I've never built it on 10.2 (I don't have it). |
Logged In: YES Uhm... As this bug report bascially says "There's no problem", I assume you are referring to something in the documentation (or readme? Something else?) that states that there are problems on OSX. Could you point out where this is, or otherwise clarify your report, please? |
Logged In: YES not exactly. I am referring to the readme for the UNIX python interpreter, but it does not say there is a problem. the relevant portion is below. --- BEGIN (Some of these may no longer apply. If you find you can build Python there is a flaw in the Mac OS X entry, though (which I just found looking at it again now): ---BEGIN judging from the rest of that paragraph, it seems that that only applies if you're using tcsh or another *csh when you configure. I used zsh (which comes with both 10.1 and 10.2) and, as I said, it built without a hitch. |
Logged In: YES Thanks for the clarification. It is indeed possible that this was fixed at some |
Logged In: YES For me the bug still exists, both with zsh and tcsh, so I'm keeping the note Let me guess: do you have a limit stacksize call in your profile or elsewhere? Note that this bug has been fixed in 2.3, but not in 2.2.X. |
Logged In: YES I did find one call to ulimit (grep -r ulimit /etc /usr), in rc.common. but all it does is set the size of core dumps, not the stack. nothing is setting the size of the stack. I tried it from zsh 3.0.8 just now (I usually run 4.0.6) and it did SIGSEGV on test_re during a make test. but, I didn't do a make test before, so this might mean nothing. I'll try it in 4.0.6 tonight. now that we have that cleared up... |
