Compiling Python 2-3.4 on Tru64 UNIX V4.0F

[Heuguette Bostic]

I am attempting to compile Python 2-3.4 on Tru64 UNIX V4.0F. Whenever I issue the make command, the following errors are output:

-pthread -ieee -std -Olimit 1500 -DNDEBUG -O -I. -I./Include -DPy_BUILD_CORE -c ./Modules/posixmodule.c -o Modules/posixmodule.o
cc: Warning: ./Modules/posixmodule.c, line 3007: "return" is an invalid preprocessor directive, and is being ignored. (baddirective)
# return PyInt_FromLong((long)getpgrp(0));
--------^
cc: Error: ./Modules/posixmodule.c, line 3025: Missing ")". (norightparen)
# if (setpgrp(0, 0) < 0)
-------------------^
cc: Warning: ./Modules/posixmodule.c, line 3016: Missing #endif directive. (noendif)
#ifdef HAVE_SETPGRP

cc: Info: ./Include/objimpl.h, line 255: In this declaration, type long double has the same representation as type double on this platform. (longdoublenyi)
long double dummy; /* force worst-case alignment */
--------^
*** Exit 1
Stop.


Does anyone have any suggestions to help me resolve this problem? Any help would be appreciated.

I would start with downloading the original Python source code. Line
3007 of posixmodule.c should not start with a hashmark. Why does it
in your copy?

I downloaded another copy and now when I compile I see the following
message:

cc: Error: ./Modules/posixmodule.c line 3007: In this
statement,"getgrp" expects 0 arguments, but 1 are supplied.
(toomanyargs)
return PyInt_FromLong((long)getgrp(0));
---------^
cc: Error: ./Modules/posixmodule.c line 3024: In this
statement,"setgrp" expects 0 arguments, but 2 are supplied.
(toomanyargs)
if (setgrp(0, 0) < 0)
-------------^
*** Exit 1
Stop.

I am looking for the format of the getgrp and setgrp commands. Thanks
for your help.

As a work-around, you could edit pyconfig.h, and remove the
mentioning of HAVE_GETPGRP and HAVE_SETPGRP. Then, these wrappers
won't get compiled.

I made it past the compilation errors by editing pyconfig.h.in. The
setgrp and getgrp module settings were set to undef. Now I see the
following errors:

rm -r /lgyr/library/lib
ar cr /lgyr/library/lib Modules/getbuildinfo.o
ar: Error: /lgyr/library/lib not in archive format
*** Exit 1
Stop

Does anyone know what library should be used? Thanks.

It appears that for some reason, LIBRARY is set to /lgyr/library/lib
in your Makefile. How did you manage that to happen? Where does the
/lgyr string come from? LIBRARY should be "libpython23.a"
