Description Philipp Bunge 2007-09-15 16:35:47 UTC 
The ebuilds for python-2.4 built libpython2.4.dylib. Have python2.5 do the same.

I tried adapting the patch from 2.4 myself, but ended up having src_compile fail with:
ld: common symbols not allowed with MH_DYLIB output format with the -multi_module option

I haven't had time to inspect this further yet.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Philipp Bunge 2007-09-15 17:03:47 UTC 
Progress: building with -fno-common resolves the previous error, but now I get:

ld: Undefined symbols:
_environ
Comment 2 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2007-09-19 19:27:17 UTC 
the environ thing can be solved this way:

+#ifdef __darwin__
+# include <crt_externs.h>
+# define environ (*_NSGetEnviron())
+#endif

Can you post your patch so we can get it into the tree asap?  I like having a libpython myself too.  Thanks for looking into this!

Fixed in dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r02.2
