Category: Extension Modules Group: Python 2.1.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Richard Jones (richard) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: setup.py assumes existence of /usr/local

Initial Comment: /usr/local doesn't exist on Max OS X, so the lines in setup.py at the start of detect_modules should propbably have:

if os.path.isdir('/usr/local/lib') and '/usr/local/lib' not in self.compilier.library_dirs:

etc.

Please give as much detail as possible. What is the exact text of the warning message? Can you guess what program is generating it?

When I add a non-existing directory in my copy of setup.py, no disturbing warnings are produced.

It generates a warning, several lines long, for each compile command. Doesn't break, just makes the compile more verbose than necessary :)

Why is that a problem? What happens with the current code?
