with and without --enable-shared on Ubuntu 10.10.  Hopefully this finally
solves bug 10126.  Will check 3.1 next.

Fixes bug #10126 for Python 3.2 by using $RUNSHARED to find the
directory to the shared library.  test_distutils now passes when
Python was built with --enable-shared (Barry didn’t have the error
but I did).

* Expose the build flags to Python as sys.abiflags
* Shared library libpythonX.Y<abiflags>.so
* python-config --abiflags
* Make two distutils tests that failed with --enable-shared (even before this
  patch) succeed.
* Fix a few small style issues.

Try to fix buildbot error in other way.

Thanks to Konrad Delong for writing a test for upload_docs
--show-response in distutils2, letting me catch my mistake.

#8292: Fix three instances of truth tests on return values of filter() (which is always true in Python 3).

in distutils.sysconfig matches that in the
toplevel sysconfig module.

Without this patch universal builds on OSX are
broken.

Als add a test that checks that the two version
of get_config_vars agree on important values.

reverted distutils its 3.1 state. All new work is now happening in disutils2, and distutils is now feature-frozen.

  Two small fixes for the support for SDKs on MacOSX:

  1) The code that checks if an path should be located in the SDK
     explicitly excludes /usr/local. This fixes issue9046

  2) The SDK variant for filtering "db_dirs_to_check" in setup.py
     was not doing anything because of a missing assignment.

  Fix for issue #7724: ensure that distutils and python's own setup.py
  honor the MacOSX SDK when one is specified.

  This is needed to be able to build using the 10.4u SDK while running
  on OSX 10.6.

  This is a fixed version of the patch in r80963, I've tested this patch
  on OSX and Linux.
