Message 111569 - Python tracker (original) (raw)
In I remarked the new itertools dependency. It seems it is in fact problematic because when building Python from scratch setup.py
which is used to build C extensions is using configparser. And one of the C-only modules is itertools :)
Attached a new patch that doesn't include itertools dependencies. The only difference with the last one is:
96d95 < import itertools 549,550c548,550 < all_sections = itertools.chain([self._defaults], < self._sections.values())
all_sections = [self._defaults] all_sections.extend(self._sections.values())
