Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am trying to build Phoenix
trunk for testing before the stable release. But I am using a
non-standard Python location, and I cannot get it to build with either
setup.py or build.py (both have the same problems). I've tested this,
and this problem occurs for Python 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4. It looks
like WAF is the source of the problem. Below I have all the steps
required to reproduce the problem on a Linux system. Any hints would
be appreciated!
Cheers,
Edward
P. S. Here are the steps to reproduce. First get the latest Python
3.3 from source and put it somewhere strange:
$ wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.3.5/Python-3.3.5.tar.xz
$ tar xvf Python-3.3.5.tar.xz
$ cd Python-3.3.5
$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/tmp/phoenix_killing_python_with_junk_waf
$ make
$ make install
Then with the latest phoenix trunk:
$ ~/tmp/phoenix_killing_python_with_junk_waf/bin/python3.3 setup.py build
Extracting in /tmp/tmpjq3cyu
Now working in /tmp/tmpjq3cyu/setuptools-2.1
