[Numpy-discussion] f2py from numpy 1.0.5 on OSX 10.4.11/QuadPPC fails with undefined symbols

[Harry Mangalam]

Answering part of my own question, one missing lib is (not 
surprisingly) libpython2.5 (add -lpython2.5) so that the link command 
is:

/usr/local/bin/g95 -L/opt/local/lib/ \
/tmp/tmp1r96Q9/tmp/tmp1r96Q9/src.macosx-10.3-ppc-2.5/fd_rrt1dmodule.o\ 
 /tmp/tmp1r96Q9/tmp/tmp1r96Q9/src.macosx-10.3-ppc-2.5/fortranobject.o\
 /tmp/tmp1r96Q9/CQZ.o /tmp/tmp1r96Q9/Umatrix1D.o \
 /tmp/tmp1r96Q9/fd_rrt1d.o \
 /tmp/tmp1r96Q9/tmp/tmp1r96Q9/src.macosx-10.3-ppc-2.5/fd_rrt1d-f2pywrappers.o\ 
-lpython2.5 \
-lSystemStubs \
-o ./fd_rrt1d.so -Wl,-framework -Wl,Accelerate
ld: Undefined symbols:
_MAIN_

You'd think that this would be added automatically, but this might be 
due to my previous installation of python2.5 (via the ports system) 
with the LDFLAGS set.

In order to fix this, I have to uninstall, then reinstall, the 
entirety of the python 2.5 dependency tree.  I'll set this to run 
later tonight.

So the only remaining undefined symbol is _MAIN_ . ...?  I don't know 
at what level to attack this; the main fortran routine is 
called 'fd_rrt1d', not 'main', but this was not a problem on Linux - 
it compiled and linked just fine.

Any ideas?

Harry
