bpo-37481: Deprecate distutils bdist_wininst command (GH-14553)
The distutils bdist_wininst command is now deprecated, use
bdist_wheel (wheel packages) instead.

Miro Hrončok 72cd653c4e bpo-10945: Drop support for bdist_wininst on non-Windows systems (GH-14506)
bdist_wininst depends on MBCS codec, unavailable on non-Windows,
and bdist_wininst have not worked since at least Python 3.2, possibly
never on Python 3.

Here we document that bdist_wininst is only supported on Windows,
and we mark it unsupported otherwise to skip tests.

Distributors of Python 3 can now safely drop the bdist_wininst .exe files
without the need to skip bdist_wininst related tests.

E. M. Bray c994c8fc19 bpo-21536: On Cygwin, C extensions must be linked with libpython (GH-13549)
It is also possible to link against a library or executable with a
statically linked libpython, but not both with the same DLL.  In fact
building a statically linked python is currently broken on Cygwin
for other (related) reasons.

The same problem applies to other POSIX-like layers over Windows
(MinGW, MSYS) but Python's build system does not seem to attempt
to support those platforms at the moment.

setuptools as a replacement.

xdegaye 254b309c80 bpo-21536: On Android, C extensions are linked to libpython (GH-12989) 2019-04-29 09:27:40 +02:00

bpo-21536: C extensions are no longer linked to libpython (GH-12946)
On Unix, C extensions are no longer linked to libpython.

It is now possible to load a C extension built using a shared library
Python with a statically linked Python.

When Python is embedded, libpython must not be loaded with
RTLD_LOCAL, but RTLD_GLOBAL instead. Previously, using RTLD_LOCAL, it
was already not possible to load C extensions which were not linked
to libpython, like C extensions of the standard library built by the
"*shared*" section of Modules/Setup.

distutils, python-config and python-config.py have been modified.

bpo-19610: Warn if distutils is provided something other than a list to some fields (#4685)
* Rather than raise TypeError, warn and call list() on the value.

* Fix tests, revise NEWS and whatsnew text.

* Revise documentation, a string is okay as well.

* Ensure 'requires' and 'obsoletes' are real lists.

* Test that requires and obsoletes are turned to lists.
