[New-bugs-announce] [issue9419] RUNSHARED needs LDFLAGS

[Peter Häring]

New submission from Peter Häring <p.haering at gmx.net>:

test_distutils fails with 2.7 on a shared build (at least if building outside the source tree), 2.6 versions work. The reason for this is, that the test tries to link and doesn't find libpython-2.7.so.1.

A solution (or workaround) is to add LDFLAGS=-L`pwd` to the variable RUNSHARED, as I did in the attached file for SUNOS and GNU/Linux etc. Other systems probably need some similar patch.
