We currently patch setuptools itself to not import distutils.msvc9compiler,
which fails because it fails to detect the msvc version and falls back to an unsupported
version 6 and raises.
This doesn't help much in case setuptools is installed through pip which doesn't contain
the fix.
This fixes msvc9compiler.py instead to not fail on import but at the compiler instance creation,
i.e. the point where the version is actually used. The setuptools fix remains for now to make
updates easier.
Fixes#5155
gdbm is broken and as a result breaks anydbm/shelve (anydbm.open fails).
Don't include it so the dumbdbm backend is used instead,
like with the official CPython build.
* readline - 7.0 - Update to latest veersion - NOTE: Will probably break stuff - rebuild what depends upon it
Rekeyed patch for new version and ifdef'ed out chown calls if not
available
* Rebuild some packages that depend upon readline for good measure
* upgrade some broken packages
* correct some broken urls/checksums
* use secure urls where possible
* update PKGBUILD templates
* remove line-ending whitespace
* minor typos/fixes
Remaining md5sums either didn't download or
didn't pass checksum tests.
* Update python2 to 2.7.11
* Update numpy to 1.10.2 (and number the patches).
* New python2 + 3 patch so that sys.version returns
something more similar to normal CPython so that
get_build_architecture in distutils msvccompiler.py
returns the right thing (NumPy uses it so there's
every chance other things will too).
Implement _nt_quote_args using subprocess module's
list2cmdline since that handles all the tricky quoting
logic properly while the previous implementation was
not capable of handling anything more complicated than
the most basic commandline arguments and those with
spaces (so no tabs, or double quotes etc).
A specific example of trouble this caused was on MSYS2
when building the gobject-introspection part of GEGL 0.3.4
and a macro of -DG_LOG_DOMAIN="GEGL"-__FILE__ was passed
to the C compiler. From distutils perspective, the final
call ended up as:
gegl-introspection-module =
Extensions('gegl-introspection',
define_macros=
[('G_LOG_DOMAIN', '"GEGL-"__FILE__')])
This *will* cause trouble in software that special-cased
Windows. An example existed in Python's own setup.py when
building the sqlite module.
The MODULE_NAME define was set to '"sqlite3"' for everything
else and to '\\"sqlite3\\"' for Windows. This commit removes
this special-casing, obviously!
The bad-old-implementation has existed for so long now that
everyone's hacked around it, which means that it's probably
too late for this change, so this means in the long-term,
this commit will go one of three ways:
1. It'll stay in and we'll fix everything up that's broken.
pip and C extensions will screw up badly here.
2. I implement a two-pass scheme where I try both the old
way and the new way for things that fail on first attempt.
3. I remove this altogether, and hack up GEGL like everything
else has been hacked up, lesson learnt.
I'm leaning towards 2 at present.
Either way, I need to figure out why GEGL was hanging before
this change as that was less than useful. Some good came out
of it; we can build debuggable python2 and py-bt works now
too!
Also renamed python-gdb.py to python_gdb.py
.. to ${MINGW_PREFIX}/share/gdb/python{2,3}/python-gdb.py
Usage:
python
sys.path.append('C:/msys64/mingw64/share/gdb/python3')
import python-gdb
reload(python-gdb)
end
