PATCH fixing boost compilation on x86_64 with python 2.5 none

Description Hans de Goede 2007-03-22 21:38:41 UTC
Hi,

I just tried to compile an application which uses libboost_python and that
failed because libboost_python expect the application to get linked against
/usr/lib/libpython2.4.so.1.0, but it is getting linked against
/usr/lib/libpython2.5.so.1.0

So please rebuild boost ASAP (before Fedora 7 gets released) also since
libboost_python needs symbols from /usr/lib/libpython.so it should get linked
against it. If this had been done earlier then this breakage would have been
caught way earlier too, through rpm deps breaking.

PATCH fixing boost compilation on x86_64 with python 2.5

I found this patch from opensuse, which fixes compiling boost on x86_64 with
python 2.5

Hey Hans. I rebuilt boost-1.33.1-12, it's too late for fc7t3 but will be in fc7.
This should show up on the rawhide build lists soon.

The build issue with linking libboost_python is on hold for the moment.

best,
benjamin

I don't understand, if you've build a new boost all is well. Or you mean the
fact that -lpython should be added to the libboost_python LDFLAGS/LIBS? If that
is what you mean I think thats best tracked in the review bug, and this one can
be closed.

Yes, this. I added it to the review bug. When the rebuilt boost shows up, you
can close this if you are satisfied.

best,
benjamin
