Re: Problem with python extension install

Actually, the link line is missing:

Thanks for the correction.. I figured that out a few minutes after I sent my last email. 8-)


Does ZopeInterface use Distutils?  If so, then the above link option
should be automatically added under Cygwin.

It does use distutils, and that's why I was confused. I further noted that other packages (e.g., Twisted-2.0.1) had the same problem -- the distutils generated linker path is appearing as "-L.", causing any extension builds to break. By manually replacing "-L." with "-L/ usr/lib/python2.4/config" in the link lines I was able to get these packages built.


This suggests a problem with distutils, but that's as far as I've had time to investigate.

Thanks,
John
