something (overridable through Install-command entry)
- Hidden status is now determined by flavor == hidden, not by
missing Download-URL. Hidden packages behave like installer packages.
- Made some error messages a bit more understandable.
Because there's new functionality the version has been upped to 0.5.
LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS for library and include directories, respectively. Solves
issue of either env var containing other options that do not pertain to the
directories being searched for.
- using a different database for non-final releases should only be done
for X.Y.0. Non-final micro releases can use the default database just fine,
as they are required to be backward compatible.
the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET environment variable to 10.3 when calling the
loader. And we do this with "env" because distutils apparently doesn't
understand environment variable assignments before command names.
to make using "-undefined dynamic_lookup" for linking extensions more
automatic on 10.3 and later. So if we're on that platform and
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is not set we now set it to the current OSX
version during configure. Additionally, distutils will pick up the
configure-time value by default.
Will backport.
needs to run it in the Makefile).
After installing a newer framework Python the apple-installed Python can
no longer build extension modules, because they will inadvertantly be linked
against the newer framework. This script modifies lib/config/Makefile so
it will link extensions with "-undefined dynamic_lookup", which forestalls
this problem.
Will backport to 2.4 and 2.3.
Pass the full URL to find_user_password(), in particular so that hosts
with port numbers can be looked up.
Also specify the digest algorithm, even if it's MD5. Titus Brown
verified that this fixes a problem with LiveJournal.
trying to return a complete line even if a size parameter was given (see
http://www.python.org/sf/1076985). This leads to buffer overflows with long
source lines under Windows if e.g. cp1252 is used as the source encoding.
This patch reverts the behaviour of readline() to something that behaves more
like Python 2.3: If a size parameter is given, read() is called only once.
As a side effect of this, readline() now supports all types of linebreaks
supported by unicode.splitlines().
Note that the tokenizer is still broken and it's possible to provoke segfaults
(see http://www.python.org/sf/1089395).
