[New-bugs-announce] [issue12282] ABCMeta import error during build

[R. David Murray]

New submission from R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com>:

After a make distclean I'm seeing the following output during a build of default.  It is possible my 2.7 install is borked, but I don't understand why python is apparently being called during a gcc step.  The build seems to succeed.

gcc -pthread -c  -g -O0 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes    -I. -IInclude -I./Include    -DPy_BUILD_CORE \
      -DHGVERSION="\"`LC_ALL=C hg id -i .`\"" \
      -DHGTAG="\"`LC_ALL=C hg id -t .`\"" \
      -DHGBRANCH="\"`LC_ALL=C hg id -b .`\"" \
      -o Modules/getbuildinfo.o ./Modules/getbuildinfo.c
