Bug report

When using ./configure it let me file a bug report

configure: error: internal configure error for the platform triplet, please file a bug report

When I used brew install gcc-11 & CC=gcc-11 ./configure the configure passed but the make failed.

Which I believe the GNU gcc is missing the HAVE_BUILTIN_AVAILABLE macro?

A quick workaround is to use the system compiler (e.g. /usr/bin/clang) instead of homebrew GCC to perform the build.

ronaldoussoren · 2022-11-14T11:37:53Z

Looks like this is a fairly shallow issue, a number of macros include HAVE_UTIMENSAT_RUNTIME are not defined when compiling on macOS with a compiler that doesn't have __builtin_available.

I'm currently installing homebrew and gcc-11 in a VM to create a fix for this.

ronaldoussoren · 2022-11-14T12:08:21Z

"brew install gcc-11" didn't work for me, I used "brew install gcc" instead and that installed gcc-12. That results in a compile error in pylifecycle.c due to the expansion of _Py_COMP_DIAG_PUSH on line 101. Moving those lines a bit earlier fixes that (will become a bit clearer when I create a PR)

ronaldoussoren · 2022-11-14T12:11:32Z

@jchnxu : W.r.t. the first error (internal configure error for the platform triplet, please file a bug report): Could you upload the configure log (config.log)? That can help us find the issue as configure should just work with Apple's compiler tools.

ronaldoussoren · 2022-11-14T12:36:55Z

I've created a PR for the problems with GCC-12 that I found. It is a draft for now for two reasons:

I'm not entirely happy with some code duplication in the _ctypes changes
There's no news entry yet

UPDATE: Said PR is now ready for review.

I noticed the same error in a CI build while working on my PR, but don't get this error while building in VM with Xcode 13.4 (same clang version as in this issue) or Xcode 14 (clang 14.0).

Which version of Python are you trying to build? Given the config.log it is a version of Python 3.8, but doesn't mention the micro release.

I cannot reproduce the issue with the latest 3.8 version, but can do so using an older micro version (I checked with 3.8.0 and 3.8.4).

Also: Did you rebuild the configure script? The line number for checking for the platform triplet based on compiler characteristics does not match any of the 3.8 tags in the repository.

The GCC 12 build error will be fixed for 3.12 and 3.11, I've just merged my PRs for that. The automatic back port to 3.10 failed and I don't care enough about GCC to try to do a manual back port.

The configure error with clang is likely due to using a old version of Python 3.8, see my previous message.

I'm therefore closing this issue.

addlistener · 2022-11-22T12:50:54Z

Caught up in other project these days. We eventually kinda moved to using scripts built by a mature 3rd party.

Thanks anyway. I don't care enough about GCC to try to do a manual back port. Totally agree there will be priority differences.

This was not fixed for 3.10? Just got this error:
