Michael W. Hudson fad4640142 Update URL. 2005-06-16 15:51:20 +00:00
Brett Cannon 08cd598c21 Introduced EXTRA_CFLAGS as an environment variable used by the Makefile. Meant
to be used for flags that change binary compatibility.

Distutils was tweaked to also use the variable if used during compilation of
the interpreter.

Michael W. Hudson 71dcc3e9b4 A few random updates to make things less horrifyingly out of date.
Delete some advice that can never, ever have worked.

There are a couple of XXX comments for bits I don't know how to
update.  It would be really good not to release Python 2.5 with these
in place :)

This file is way too big.  There's basically no chance of it staying
up to date.

Fred Drake 146f61d4ac Update config.h to pyconfig.h. 2002-11-04 20:49:45 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 6e75364cbe I'd forgotten that tcsh was the default for 10.1, but SF's 10.1 system
uses bash and so does my 10.2 system.  "limit stacksize 2048" is the
right invocation for tcsh/csh.
2002-10-14 18:15:35 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 6a8557da36 There was a typo in the MacOSX section regarding the stacksize issue.
There's no limit command near as I can tell.  Should be the bash
builtin ulimit command.

Michael W. Hudson be6e0f4f30 Random tweaks & updates. 2002-06-23 16:29:36 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 57454e57f8 This introduces stricter library/header file checking for the Berkeley DB
library.  Since multiple versions can be installed simultaneously, it's
crucial that you only select libraries and header files which are compatible
with each other.  Version checking is done from highest version to lowest.
Building using version 1 of Berkeley DB is disabled by default because of
the hash file bugs people keep rediscovering.  It can be enabled by
uncommenting a few lines in setup.py.  Closes patch 553108.
