| The python-config outputs ldflag for explicit linking to libpyhton, which is a good idea in many use cases. However, this is inconsistent with the PEP 513 recommendation for building manylinux1 python extensions (https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0513/) that requires avoiding explicit linking to libpythonX.Y.so.1. | ||

| Also, python-config is inconsistent with distutils. It should link to libpython only in the cases where distutils does. (IIRC it's supposed to depend on whether python was built with --enable-shared.) | ||

| Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered for distutils. If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools |
