Hi! |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
It looks like we are reinventing the wheel a little. We have |
| 4 |
python-config which is our own stuff (let me know if it isn't). |
| 5 |
Currently this script only returns the libraries to link against. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I think it would be better to drop the python-config script and use |
| 8 |
pkg-config instead. pkg-config is becoming a standard for these kind of |
| 9 |
things and we would then just install a .pc file and then do: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
pkg-config --libs python (-L /usr/lib/python2.2/config -lpython2.2 |
| 12 |
...) |
| 13 |
pkg-config --modversion python (2.2) |
| 14 |
pkg-config --cflags (-I/usr/include/python2.2) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
-- |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The current python-config looks like this: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
#!/usr/bin/python |
| 21 |
import distutils.sysconfig, string |
| 22 |
print |
| 23 |
"-lpython2.2",string.join(string.split(distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var("MODLIBS"))) |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
A question? Is this MODLIBS generated at installation time (of the |
| 26 |
python-package)? If so we would exchange this scheme for a python.pc |
| 27 |
file which would look something like: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
prefix=/usr |
| 30 |
exec_prefix=${prefix} |
| 31 |
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib |
| 32 |
includedir=${prefix}/include |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Name: Python |
| 35 |
Description: Python language |
| 36 |
Version: 2.2 |
| 37 |
Libs: -L/usr/lib -lpython2.2 -lreadline -lncurses -ldb-3.2 -lz |
| 38 |
Cflags: -I${includedir}/python2.2 |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
If I get a go on this I can do the change and update all our ebuilds |
| 42 |
currently using python-config. |
