Description Kamil Rytarowski 2012-07-02 20:08:20 CEST 
Description of problem:

Python3 x86_64 version is broken and not usable.

Python3 installs files into /usr/lib64 directory, and some libraries are looking for files in /usr/lib. This is producing error tracebacks.

This bug is present in Mga2 and Mga3 (Cauldron) - for Cauldron this is release blocker - because without it, there isn't possible to introduce missing libraries.

Input Command (one-liner): python3 -c "import distutils.sysconfig;print(distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars('LDFLAGS'))"

And the result
===================
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 435, in _init_posix
    parse_makefile(filename, g)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 304, in parse_makefile
    fp = TextFile(fn, strip_comments=1, skip_blanks=1, join_lines=1, errors="surrogateescape")
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/text_file.py", line 100, in __init__
    self.open(filename)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/text_file.py", line 115, in open
    self.file = io.open(self.filename, 'r', errors=self.errors)
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/lib/python3.2/config-3.2mu/Makefile'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 526, in get_config_vars
    func()
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 441, in _init_posix
    raise DistutilsPlatformError(my_msg)
distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python3.2/config-3.2mu/Makefile (No such file or directory)
==============

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python3.2-3.2.3-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install python3 and python3-devel (don't install 32bit packages concurrently!) in 64bit environment
2. Consult a result of: python3 -c "import distutils.sysconfig;print(distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars('LDFLAGS'))"

Comment 1 Kamil Rytarowski 2012-07-02 21:58:42 CEST 
I'm on it.
Comment 2 Kamil Rytarowski 2012-07-03 19:58:37 CEST 
Fixed in Cauldron.
Comment 3 Kamil Rytarowski 2012-07-03 21:27:15 CEST 
Suggested advisory:
========================

Updated Python3 package fixes X86_64 build.

64 bit installation was partly broken. A simple way to see an error was to type:
python3 -c "import distutils.sysconfig;print(distutils.sysconfig.get_config_vars('LDFLAGS'))"

This update uses patches from Fedora.

Comment 4 William Murphy 2012-07-04 16:31:21 CEST 
Testing on mga2 x86_64 and mga2 i586 (since listed in advisory)

Before update, output was the same as in the bug description above for x86_64. 
Before and after for mga2 i586 and after update for x86_64, output was: 

['-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--build-id -Wl,--enable-new-dtags']

Testing complete for mga2 i586 & x86_64.

please don't push the updates, see new bug 6704

we can mix the two advisory and close the bugs in the same time.

Depends on: (none) => 6702
