I tried your patch on an AMD64 ubuntu 5.10, after I
installed the 4.0.1-4ubuntu9 libffi package. It crashes in
ctypes/test/test_python_api.py, test_PyOS_snprintf. IIRC,
libffi did not support varargs functions, but Andreas Degert
added support for them (for x86_64), and it works fine.
Ok, new features in libffi might not be the norm, but I see
no way how I can check whether a system-installed libffi
supports this feature or not.
Do *you* see a solution for that?
For the actual changes to setup.py, if the patch really is a
good idea: Since I don't even know what a convience library
is I'll trust you fully that your patch does the right thing. |
