In Python 3.4+, upstream added and switched to using a shell
implementation of the python-config script [1]. The Python
implementation (python-config.py) remained used by all versions < 3.4.
While the shell implementation returns the path to the Python
shared library when using the --ldflags script argument, the Python
implementation of the script does not. The bug has been reported, but
has not yet been merged [2].
The Python ports currently default to including ${LOCALBASE}/lib
in LIBS when the NLS option is enabled (which it is by default).
When built *with* NLS (gettext) support, the flags added to LIBS
are returned in `pythonX.Y-config --ldflags` output, which happens
to match the path to the Python shared library.
If the NLS option is disabled, ${LOCALBASE}/lib is not added to LIBS,
and are therefore not returned in --ldflags output.
This results in potential linking errors for software that uses
python-config to obtain the correct library path, when the NLS option is
disabled:
$ make WITH=PYTHON -C audio/alsa-lib
[...]
--- smixer-python.la ---
CCLD smixer-python.la
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpython2.7
This change modifies the python-config.in script to match the shell
implementation, outputting the library path in --ldflags output.
While I'm here:
for Python 3.2 and Python 3.3 ports, backport a library order
change [3]. This could affect linking with static libraries.
