Subject:   python 1.4 port in 2.2.5
Message-ID:  <199711211802.KAA08386@hudsucker.gamespot.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
has anyone got a python 1.4 built with thread support on freebsd
2.2.5?  i made and installed libc_r but python is looking for -lthread
or something like that and i don't know anything about threads, so i
am loathe to just blithely replace a library.

the python in /usr/ports/lang depends on tcl and tk which seems odd to
me, given that it's mainly a text-based language.  i am not installing
X on this machine just to build a language interpreter.

if anybody has any of the following, please get in touch:

1. prebuilt tarball of python with threads that will run on FBSD 2.2.5
2. instructions on how to build python with thread support on 2.2.5
3. a python port that doesn't require X for installation

thanks for your help.
