Currently, "pip3 install --upgrade pip" unconditionally installs a
"pip" alias even for Python 3. If a user has an existing Python 3.x
installed from a python.org macOS installer and then subsequently
manually updates to a new version of pip, there may now be a stray
"pip" alias in the Python 3.x framework bin directory which can cause
confusion if the user has both a Python 2.7 and 3.x installed;
if the Python 3.x fw bin directory appears early on $PATH, "pip"
might invoke the pip3 for the Python 3.x rather than the pip for
Python 2.7. To try to mitigate this, the macOS installer script
for the ensurepip option will unconditionally remove "pip" from
the 3.x framework bin directory being updated / installed. (The
ambiguity can be avoided by using "pythonx.y -m pip".)
Build and link with private copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6 for the macOS 10.6+
installer. The 10.9+ installer variant already does this. This means that
the Python 3.7 provided by the python.org macOS installers no longer need or
use any external versions of Tcl/Tk, either system-provided or user-
installed, such as ActiveTcl.
This issue covers various changes for the macOS installers provided via python.org for 3.7.0.
- Provide a provisional new installer variant for macOS 10.9 and later systems with 64-bit (x86_64) architecture only. Apple has made it known that future versions of macOS will only fully support 64-bit executables and some other third-party software suppliers have chosen 10.9 as their oldest supported system.
- Support **Tcl/Tk 8.6** with the 10.9 installer variant.
- Upgrade **OpenSSL** to 1.1.0g and **SQLite** to 3.22.0.
- The compiler name used for the interpreter build and for modules built with **Distutils / pip** is now _gcc_ rather than _gcc-4.2_. And extension module builds will no longer try to force use of an old SDK if present.
* Fix multiple typos in code comments
* Add spacing in comments (test_logging.py, test_math.py)
* Fix spaces at the beginning of comments in test_logging.py
Don't rebuild generated files based on file modification time
anymore, the action is now explicit. Replace "make touch"
with "make regen-all".
Changes:
* Remove "make touch", Tools/hg/hgtouch.py and .hgtouch
* Add a new "make regen-all" command to rebuild all generated files
* Add subcommands to only generate specific files:
- regen-ast: Include/Python-ast.h and Python/Python-ast.c
- regen-grammar: Include/graminit.h and Python/graminit.c
- regen-importlib: Python/importlib_external.h and Python/importlib.h
- regen-opcode: Include/opcode.h
- regen-opcode-targets: Python/opcode_targets.h
- regen-typeslots: Objects/typeslots.inc
* Rename PYTHON_FOR_GEN to PYTHON_FOR_REGEN
* pgen is now only built by by "make regen-grammar"
* Add $(srcdir)/ prefix to paths to source files to handle correctly
compilation outside the source directory
Note: $(PYTHON_FOR_REGEN) is no more used nor needed by "make"
default target building Python.
and link with a private copy of OpenSSL, like installers targeted
for 10.5 already do, since Apple has deprecated use of the system
OpenSSL and removed its header files from the Xcode 7 SDK. Note
that this configuration is not currently used to build any
python.org-supplied installers and that the private copy of
OpenSSL requires its own root certificates.
Among other issues, the Apple-supplied 0.9.7 libs for the 10.5 ABI cannot
verify newer SHA-256 certs as now used by python.org services. Document
in the installer ReadMe some of the certificate management issues that
users now need to be more concerned with due to PEP 476's enabling cert
verification by default. For now, continue to use the Apple-supplied
0.9.8 libs for the 10.6+ installer since they use Apple private APIs to
verify certificates using the system- and user-managed CA keychain stores.
Some third-party projects, such as matplotlib and PIL/Pillow,
depended on being able to build with Tcl and Tk frameworks in
/Library/Frameworks. They were unable to build with the built-in
Tcl/Tk and/or execute correctly.
Make it easier for users to make use of the backup _tkinter linked
with the third-party Tcl and Tk frameworks in /Library/Frameworks.
The two tkinter variants are now installed in separate directories
under a new lib-tkinter. This allows per-user selection by
manipulating sys.path, directly or with PYTHONPATH. If this
proves useful, we can supply a more convenient user interface
to supply the paths. For now, this remains somewhat experimental.

- Remove OS X installer and Mac/Makefile dependencies on /Developer which
no longer exists with Xcode 4; the referenced tools have been installed
into the usr/bin tool root since Xcode 3.
- Support adding the SDK usr/bin tool root to the installer's PATH via the
SDK_TOOLS_BIN environment variable.
different parsing of the Makefile by distutils.sysconfig and
sysconfig in the case when an intermediate config vars, used to
construct PY_CFLAGS or PY_LDFLAGS, has a trailing space character.
In this case, the OS X installer build script was leaving a
trailing space in the OPT and LDFLAGS config vars. The space is not
significant and it's not worth toying with the Makefile parsing.

the system-provided Python. Also, properly guard a new Python 3 only
installer build step so that build-installer.py can stay compatible
with the 2.7 version. (with release manager approval for 3.2rc2)
Both the Makefile and the script that is used on OSX to create the binary
installer refer to the directory containing the Makefile using the name
'config'. This name was changed with the new ABI (with default build flags
it is now named config-3.2m). This patch ensures that both files use the
correct name.
The build-installer.py script contains one other change: it now tests for the
Tcl/Tk framework version by looking at the 'Current' symlink in the framework
instead of runnning a script. This makes it possible to verify the version
that is in the SDK that's used during the build instead of the version that
is installed on the system.
Builds are not yet fully supported on Python 3 as some parts
of the build process (like the documentation build chain)
are still dependent on Python 2.
Without this patch the i386/x86_64 installer for OSX 10.6
lies in the ReadMe file and the "Important Information" screen
of the installer (that is, the installer claims it supports
the i386 and ppc architectures insetead of the ones it really
supports)
