Summary: "require <feature>" configure option
Initial Comment:
I'd like to be able to configure Python so that
Configure or Make will fail if a particular
feature is unavailable. Currently I'm concerned
with SSL, which just gets a warning from Make:
building '_ssl' extension
*** WARNING: renaming "_ssl" since importing it
failed: ld.so.1: ./python: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.8: open
failed: No such file or directory
Since that's buried in a lot of Make output, it's
easy to miss. Besides, for semi-automatic builds
it's in any case good to get a non-success exit
status from the build process.
Looking at the Make output, I see the bz2 extension
is another example where this might be useful.
Maybe the option would simply be '--enable-ssl',
unless you want that to merely try to build with
ssl.
Or '--require=ssl,bz2,...'.
