(Tought I already had answered this on the list, seems to be not - sorry).

Yes, that is possible: $ gmake config python_SUPPLY=EXTERNAL This informx prefix-launcher to not build python, but to assume it in PATH. $ gmake install Continues the install.
just for my understanding: did hawking fix this issue for the gentoo ebuild or not?
(In reply to comment #2) > just for my understanding: > > did hawking fix this issue for the gentoo ebuild or not? Yes, looks good, although I did not retest it yet.
Completely disabled building tkinter module in prefix-launcher/trunk (on sourceforge.net) revision 106 - please try again.
I'm still hitting major issues with python on AIX 5.3. I have yet to try bootstrapping it again. Now when I run eprefix-bootstrap, python dies with the following snippet: <snip, ld WARNINGs extend past my xterm buffer> ld: 0711-224 WARNING: Duplicate symbol: PyErr_SetInterrupt ld: 0711-224 WARNING: Duplicate symbol: PyOS_AfterFork ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r4/work/Python-2.5.1' powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-ranlib libpython2.5.a ./Modules/makexp_aix Modules/python.exp . libpython2.5.a; powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc -pthread -L/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/usr/lib -R/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/usr/lib -L/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/lib -R/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/lib -L. -Wl,-bE:Modules/python.exp -lld -o python \ Modules/python.o \ -Wl,-blibpath:/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/usr/lib libpython2.5.a -ldl -lm powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc: unrecognized option '-R/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/usr/lib' powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc: unrecognized option '-R/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/lib' ld: 0711-319 WARNING: Exported symbol not defined: _GLOBAL__FD_libpython2_5_so ld: 0711-319 WARNING: Exported symbol not defined: _GLOBAL__FI_libpython2_5_so case $MAKEFLAGS in \ *-s*) LIBPATH=/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r4/work/Python-2.5.1: CC='powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc -pthread' LDSHARED='./Modules/ld_so_aix powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc -pthread -bI:Modules/python.exp' OPT='-DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes' ./python -E ./setup.py -q build;; \ *) LIBPATH=/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r4/work/Python-2.5.1: CC='powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc -pthread' LDSHARED='./Modules/ld_so_aix powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc -pthread -bI:Modules/python.exp' OPT='-DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes' ./python -E ./setup.py build;; \ esac Could not load program ./python: Dependent module libc.a(shr.o) could not be loaded.

This indicates "/usr/lib:/lib" is missing in libpath - AIX ld needs this explicitly passed with "-blibpath" if any. > Is anything blatantly obvious?

(In reply to comment #6) > Unfortunately python-2.5 is still broken on aix - although I have a working one here, the merge does not work smoothly yet. Oh? I was not aware. Isn't that pretty important for portage ;-) - Do you know what Marshall from the ML did? Could we get Python 2.4 only keyworded for aix back in the tree? > > > -Wl,-blibpath:/home/jolexa/portage/aix-5.3/usr/lib > > Depending on the ld-wrapper in use (binutils-config), this may be one part of > the problem. > > > Dependent module libc.a(shr.o) could not be loaded. > > This indicates "/usr/lib:/lib" is missing in libpath - AIX ld needs this > explicitly passed with "-blibpath" if any. Is that a env var or something that gets passed via configure? And how can I pass that properly? > Were you able to build python with '--enable-shared' ? I will get back to you. Thanks for your help so far, this is my last hurdle I think. ;)
> > Were you able to build python with '--enable-shared' ? > > I will get back to you. Is it possible that previous patches screw up python 2.5 on AIX?? I got python 2.5.1 to compile and run on AIX 5.3 manually by: 0) Apply python-2.4.4-ld_so_aix-which.patch & python-2.5.1-aix-ldshared.patch 0b) export PYTHON_DISABLE_MODULES=readline pyexpat dbm gdbm bsddb _curses _curses_panel _tkinter _sqlite3 && export PYTHON_DISABLE_SSL=1 1) ./configure --prefix=<path> --enable-shared --disable-ipv6 --with-gcc 2) in setup.py: -ext_modules=[Extension('_struct', ['_struct.c'])], +#ext_modules=[Extension('_struct', ['_struct.c'])], I have no clue what effect that has on the final product. It didn't want to compile _struct for the same reason that it didn't want to compile _tkinter that I brought up awhile ago. So, I disabled it. 3) make 4) make install 4b) search the web to see why I hit this: Compiling /home/jolexa/aix/bin2/lib/python2.5/zipfile.py ... make: *** [libinstall] Error 1 5) give up searching and do "make -i install" 6) appears to work. Please give me some input on this. Can you also let me know if it works for you?
Fixed with r13646.
