Summary: distutils, shared libraries and Mac OS X
Initial Comment:
My python:
Python 2.1.1 (#33, Dec 9 2001, 12:26:52)
[GCC 2.95.2 19991024 (release)] on darwin5
I was trying to configure the sketch app and
setup.py was complaining that it could not find my
tcl/tk libraries. The problem is that Darwin uses
the .dylib extension for shared libraries and
distutils was looking for .so.
as a "fix", in distutils/unixccompiler.py I made the
following change:
76c76,78
<
---
> import sys
> if sys.platform[:-1] == "darwin": # Mac OS X
> shared_lib_extension = ".dylib"
this worked, but I'm sure there's a better way...
i'd imagine that this would also be an issue on
HP-UX with the .sl extension?

looks like patch #450862 already addresses this issue
for .dylib
