[New-bugs-announce] [issue26239] distutils link-objects is not normalized

[Jeremy Fergason]

New submission from Jeremy Fergason:

When giving setup.cfg a link-objects argument build fails with an error message about cannot concatenate string with list.  

Need to add the following line to: Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py

self.ensure_string_list('link_objects')
