[New-bugs-announce] [issue24615] 'make install' fails installation of man pages for Python 2.7.10 on Unixware 7.1.4

[Ron Barak]

New submission from Ron Barak:

I wanted to add Python 2.7 to Unix.
I downloaded the sources to the VirtualBox on which the Unix is installed.

./configure is successful.
make is successful after I manually applied the changes in http://bugs.python.org/issue24611

However, 'make install' fails the installation of man pages (see attached).

(Note that Python 2.7.10 is installed and is accessible as /usr/local/bin/python2.7)


./configure --prefix=/usr       \
            --enable-shared     \
            --with-system-expat \

without problems.

However, when I try to run make, it fails on:

cc –Kpthread –Wl,-Bexport –o python Modules/python.o libpython2.7.a -lsocket –lnsl –lpthread –ldl –lm 

Undefined                       first referenced

Environment:
