-shared option in distutils

[Dave Harrison]

afternoon pythonic gurus,

quick question about distutils.

Im compiling on solaris 9 and am having problems with the linking (I loathe solaris these days ;-),
and if I call gcc by hand and remove the -shared flag and replace it with -G it works.

But I just cant find where I need to change this in the distutils package for my install of python2.1.1.

Where can I find it ?

cheers
Dave

Where can I find it ?

It is extracted from the installed Makefile. In theory, if you build
Python with the Sun compiler, it should automatically decide to use
-G, and so should then distutils use -G as well, without manual
intervention.

Martin
