Description Sven Suursoho 2006-05-21 14:24:18 UTC 
Description of problem:
Building python's RPM package doesn't honore ./configure calculated compiler 
options.
Although configured without debugging flags, rpmbuild manages to loose -DNDEBUG 
option from compiler's command line i.e. in production version of python, there 
are still active assertions.

It wouldn't be much a problem (except performance, of course), but it overlaps 
with python's bug that can cause python extension modules to crash. See http://
sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1483133&group_id=5470&atid=
105470


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.4.*


Steps to Reproduce:
(a) see http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1483133&group_
id=5470&atid=105470

(b)
1. Build attached application
$ cc try.c -o try -I /usr/include/python2.4 -lpython2.4
2. Run
$ ./try
try: Objects/genobject.c:53: gen_iternext: Assertion `f->f_back != ((void *)0)' 
failed.
Aborted

This bug is blocking development of PostgreSQL stored procedure language PL/
Python. See http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2006-04/msg00264.php
Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2006-06-26 19:32:56 UTC 
python-2.4.3-8.FC4 has been pushed for fc4, which should resolve this issue.  If these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in this bug report.
