A previous commit broke a check in sysconfig when building cpython itself. This caused builds of the standard library modules to search a wrong location (the installed location rather than the source directory) for header files with the net effect that a ``make install`` incorrectly caused all extension modules to be rebuilt again and with incorrect include file paths. When building Python, we need two distinct "include" directories: - source .h files - install target for .h files Note that this doesn't matter except when building Python from source. Historically: - source .h files were in the distutils scheme under 'include' - the install directory was in the distutils.command.install scheme under 'headers' GH-24549 merged these; sysconfig is now the single source of truth and distutils is derived from it. This commit introduces a "secret" scheme path, 'headers', which contains the install target. It is only present when building Python. The distutils code uses it if present, and falls back to 'include'. Co-authored-by: Ned Deily <nad@python.org> |
