Some tools use `python-config --ldflags` to get the flags in order to link against the Python lib on OS X (for example gst-python from pygtk (2.x). For framework builds, `python-config --ldflags` returns (among few other): -u _PyMac_Error Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python which is an incomplete path. This issue is almost a duplicate of http://bugs.python.org/issue3588 and the fix discussed there would work. However I report this for Python 2.7. We at Homebrew propose a very similar fix but I'd prefer the one in issue3588: LINKFORSHARED = -u _PyMac_Error -framework Python LDFLAGS += -F$(PYTHONFRAMEWORKPREFIX)
