There has been no further feedback on PEP 470, and Donald has
incorporated all the feedback, so I'm happy to announce that I am
approving it.
The PEP is available in the usual place at
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0470/.
Thanks to all who participated in the various threads on the subject,
and to Donald for writing the PEP and updating it to reflect all of
the extensive feedback.
Cheers,
Paul
I wrote a post about a problem Homebrew sees pretty often on OS X
where projects link extension modules with -lpython (either explicitly
or because they trust python-config --ldflags). If you see somebody
doing this, please point them to this post and invite them to use
-undefined dynamic_lookup instead, so that the Python symbols are
resolved at import time.
