4 Subject: [PATCH] Add infrastructure to disable the build of certain extensions
6 Some of the extensions part of the Python core have dependencies on
7 external libraries (sqlite, tk, etc.) or are relatively big and not
8 necessarly always useful (CJK codecs for example). By extensions, we
9 mean part of Python modules that are written in C and therefore
10 compiled to binary code.
12 Therefore, we introduce a small infrastructure that allows to disable
13 some of those extensions. This can be done inside the configure.ac by
14 adding values to the DISABLED_EXTENSIONS variable (which is a
15 word-separated list of extensions).
17 The implementation works as follow :
19 * configure.ac defines a DISABLED_EXTENSIONS variable, which is
20 substituted (so that when Makefile.pre is generated from
21 Makefile.pre.in, the value of the variable is substituted). For
22 now, this DISABLED_EXTENSIONS variable is empty, later patches will
25 * Makefile.pre.in passes the DISABLED_EXTENSIONS value down to the
26 variables passed in the environment when calling the setup.py
27 script that actually builds and installs those extensions.
29 * setup.py is modified so that the existing "disabled_module_list" is
30 filled with those pre-disabled extensions listed in
33 Patch ported to python2.7 by Maxime Ripard <ripard@archos.com>, and
34 then extended by Thomas Petazzoni
35 <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>.
