Actually I'm looking into that. According to the information I have |
| 17 |
found on the python-dev list and in python's documentation the libstdc++ |
| 18 |
link is not needed, but a dev asked a python herd member for it, and |
| 19 |
therefore the link was added. Haven't "caught" that dev yet, so at the |
| 20 |
moment I don't know why that link is there. If someone on this list |
| 21 |
knows the reason it was added, please enlighten me. |
