#11774: Python >= 2.2 should allow for UCS-4 builds --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: jarkko.laiho@… | Owner: mww@… Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: python unicode ucs2 ucs4 | Port: --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by jarkko.laiho@…): nox, that's right, your message just caused a CC to be sent to my e-mail address, and my response was directed at the old comment by mcalhoun (I've somehow ignored the CCs sent between then and now) suggesting closing this ticket due to python26/30 having UCS-4 variants. The passage of time has really made this ticket redundant, IMHO. Anyone in a real need of a UCS-4 build of Python from MacPorts has moved on to using python26 by now, so I don't think it's worth the trouble to make python24 or python25 UCS-4 builds. I originally opened this ticket, and the need having disappeared, would close it if I could. Your concern about whether a variant is the correct solution for UCS-4 builds or not is probably valid, but I think you might consider opening a separate ticket for it; you'd probably get more responses that way. This ticket is basically dead (and good riddance ;-) -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/11774#comment:19> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
