Description Bruno Redondi 2010-09-17 10:12:32 UTC
bootstrapping $EPREFIX/tmp python fails to build _ctypes_test module.
adding _ctypes_test to PYTHON_DISABLE_MODULES in bootstrap-prefix.sh solves the issue.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Bruno Redondi 2010-09-17 10:59:52 UTC
bootstrapping $EPREFIX/tmp tar fails to build due to a missing definition of CHAR_BIT.
setting CPPFLAGS="-DCHAR_BIT=8" in bootstrap-prefix.sh solves the issue.

Have you tried bootstrapping on hpux using prefix-launcher?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/prefix-launcher/

It also does provide another script named 'eprefix-bootstrap'.

Unfortunately, the only problem with prefix-launcher is missing doc.
