Hi I can't get python23 to work in leopard. After I couldn't get it to work with the default python23 Portfile, I tried to compile it manually. When I used "./configure --disable-tk --disable-toolbox-glue --disable- framework" and add the line "#define HAVE_BROKEN_POSIX_SEMAPHORES 1" to pyconfig.h, I could start python23 without errors, but I doesn't work for everything. Here is the same error I get when I try to use zope2.8. Python 2.3.6 (#12, Dec 6 2007, 23:19:03) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import asyncore Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/tmp/py23/lib/python2.3/asyncore.py", line 56, in ? from errno import EALREADY, EINPROGRESS, EWOULDBLOCK, ECONNRESET, \ ImportError: cannot import name ESHUTDOWN I also tried the options under http://blogs.nuxeo.com/sections/blogs/florent_guillaume/2005_05_21_compiling... (tips for tiger) Does anybody have an idea how this can be solved? Could it be, that this has some thing to do with posix change (see http://www.nosignal.net/index.php/2007/10/27/leopard-has-landed/ )? For some projects, I can't switch to python24 or python25 at the moment and need to use python23 :-( . regards Yves

Hello,

No more thoughts about that? Let me know if you need more informations to fix that part, I'd love to help if I can.

Regards, David

Hi all,

I got some trouble with the python redland--binding on leopard, here is the difference with the ruby installation:

$ sudo port install redland-bindings +ruby ---> Fetching redland-bindings ---> Verifying checksum(s) for redland-bindings ---> Extracting redland-bindings ---> Configuring redland-bindings ---> Building redland-bindings with target all ---> Staging redland-bindings into destroot ---> Installing redland-bindings 1.0.6.1_0+ruby ---> Activating redland-bindings 1.0.6.1_0+ruby ---> Cleaning redland-bindings

$ sudo port install redland-bindings +python ---> Building python23 with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync .macports.org_release_ports_lang_python23/work/Python-2.3.6" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: gcc -L/opt/local/lib -u __dummy -u _PyMac_Error - framework System -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation -o python.exe \ Modules/python.o \ -L. -lpython2.3 -ldl -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation Undefined symbols: "__dummy", referenced from: ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [python.exe] Error 1

Error: The following dependencies failed to build: python23 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

The issue seemed to be a python23 dependency so I decide to install this one but I got another problem at this point:

$ sudo port install python23 ---> Building python23 with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/ local/var/macports/build/ _opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync .macports.org_release_ports_lang_python23/work/Python-2.3.6" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: gcc -L/opt/local/lib -u __dummy -u _PyMac_Error - framework System -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation -o python.exe \ Modules/python.o \ -L. -lpython2.3 -ldl -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation Undefined symbols: "__dummy", referenced from: ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [python.exe] Error 1

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

which were already reported here: http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2007-November/006972.ht...

Now what can I do? I think it should more interesting to depends on python24 but at least to allow me to install python23, or maybe I'm doing something wrong?
