Re: py 2.7.1 & openssl
hi, Yes, _md5 is enabled but I get a very long list under Failed to build these modules: ... list of mostly all extension modules ... This list was empty earlier. at some point, the compilation failed to detect needed headers or libraries files. i suggest you to try something simple in order to see what is wrong in the compilation step. first, when compiling openssl. your wrote in original post: I installed openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz on my RHEL 5 box using: ./config --prefix=/usr/local --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl shared zlib make sudo make install just try: ./config make make install and nothing else. do su root, when you install, not sudo. don't use any --prefix=xxx nor --openssldir=xxx. use the default location, that is /usr/local/ssl as this is the location where Python looks for ssl headers and libraries. don't use shared. Python uses static libraries and as far as i can tell, shared libraries are not supported yet on x86_64 platform. with openssl-1.0.0d, i think you don't even need to specify the -fPIC flag, but using it doesn't hurt. you also wrote: And, the following files are created in /usr/local/lib64: libssl.a, libssl.so, libcrypto.a, libcrypto.so. Also, the binary openssl is created in the bin directory. these files aren't used at all, unless you change the setup.py file to build _ssl extension. i repeat: Python uses /usr/local/ssl directory (or /usr/contrib/ssl/) to look for ssl headers and libraries. secondly, when compiling Python: Then I installed python 2.7.1 using PYHOME=/usr/local/Python-2.7.1; export PYHOME LD_RUN_PATH=$PYHOME/lib; export LD_RUN_PATH LDFLAGS="-L /usr/local/lib64 -L /usr/local/lib"; export LDFLAGS CPPFLAGS="-I /usr/local/include -I /usr/local/include/ openssl"; export CPPFLAGS ./configure --enable-shared --prefix=$PYHOME > log_cfg 2>&1 make > log_mk 2>&1 sudo make install > log_mk_i 2>&1 try something simple instead of these messy configurations! just try: ./configure make make install if you want to install Python in a specific directory, e.g. /usr/local/Python-2.7.1 , use: make install DESTDIR=/usr/local/Python-2.7.1 and then, you play with: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/Python-2.7.1/lib /usr/local/Python-2.7.1/bin/python if you really want to specify some libraries and include files, but usually you don't, Python is smart enough to find them, don't use : LDFLAGS="-L /usr/local/lib64 -L /usr/local/lib"; export LDFLAGS CPPFLAGS="-I /usr/local/include -I /usr/local/include/ openssl"; export CPPFLAGS pass them in the configuration line instead: CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include/openssl" \ LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib64" \ ./configure notice that there is no space between the -I or -L and the directory name. and the backslash to continue long line. finally, don't use sudo. try to log as root if possible. may be you cannot access some files needed for compilation as a simple user. and some LD*** and CPP*** flags are reset when you use sudo. hope this helps nirinA -- Simple is better than complex. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Compiling python without ssl?
[Austin Bingham] Is there any way to compile python (3.1.3, in case it matters) without ssl support? OpenSSL is on my system, and configure finds it, but I can't find a way to tell configure to explicitly ignore it. I need a version of python without ssl for trade compliance reasons (I don't make the dumb rules, I just follow 'em), and we used to be able to just remove the ssl module after the build. With more recent releases, though, this approach causes problems with e.g. hashlib. Ideally I'd like something like "configure --disable-ssl", but I can also do surgery on configure or something if that's what it takes. Thanks in advance! Austin you can change or erase the list of include and library files related to ssl in setup.py before configuring. but, as you say, this may break hashlib. and probably the socket module, and may be other things, like idle. nirinA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: BeautifulSoup import error
[1011_wxy]
I got a import error when I use Python 3.2 to import BeautifulSoup 3.2.0
the error i see is a SyntaxError.
Is there any differences between Python 3.2 and other version?
yes. and there is a tool, 2to3, which converts
Python 2.x scripts to work with 3.x.
And the error message will be as below.
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
File "C:\Python32\BeautifulSoup.py", line 448
raise AttributeError, "'%s' object has no attribute '%s'" %
(self.__class__.__name__, attr)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
a quick fix here, change:
raise AttributeError, "'%s' object has no attribute '%s'"
%(self.__class__.__name__, attr)
to:
raise AttributeError("'%s' object has no attribute '%s'"
%(self.__class__.__name__, attr))
enclose the string message with parentheses.
at least, you will not get the SyntaxError.
but a better solution is to use 2to3.
i don't use BeautifulSoup, and i'm still stick with
Python2.5.4 on windows, so can't help much.
with Linux, it is just:
2to3 a_python_file_or_a_dir_package
on windows, i don't know, maybe:
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen(('python.exe', 'Tools/Scripts/2to3.py', 'the_package'))

yeah, known but forgotten.
hmmm ...
let's try :
>>> import Tkconstants
>>> 'YES' in dir(Tkconstants)
True
>>> 'True' in dir(Tkconstants)
False
>>> 'TRUE' in dir(Tkconstants)
True
>>> ('inexistent keyword') in dir(Tkconstants)
False
so
>>> 'TRUE' and 'YES' in dir(Tkconstants)
True
>>> 'inexistent keyword' and 'YES' in dir(Tkconstants)
True
i'll recite 42 times truth tables before going to bed.
however i didn't expect the following:
>>> 'inexistent keyword' or 'YES' in dir(Tkconstants)
'inexistent keyword'
>>> False or 'YES' in dir(Tkconstants)
True
hmmm...
>>> ('inexistent keyword' or 'YES') in dir(Tkconstants)
False
>>> (False or 'YES') in dir(Tkconstants)
True
i'll recite 42 times precedence rules before going to bed.
but now i'm a bit confused by the -in- operator. as:
>>> set(['TRUE','YES']).issubset(set(dir(Tkconstants)))
True
i expected this to be true, but it's not:
>>> set(['TRUE','YES']) in set(dir(Tkconstants))
False
originaly, i'm thinking to short-cut the following,
>>> reduce(lambda t,f: t and f, [i in dir(Tkconstants) for i in
'YES','inexistent keyword'])
False
>>> reduce(lambda t,f: t and f, [i in dir(Tkconstants) for i in
'TRUE','YES'])
True
but that was too short and i miss something!
