build: Don't use extra Python ldflags in shared lib (1.01 KB, patch)
2016-11-10 05:39 UTC, Philip Chimento 		none Details | Review

Description Philip Chimento 2016-11-10 05:37:35 UTC 
Building libpeas on Mac OS (10.12.1) from JHBuild fails:

      CCLD     libpython3loader.la
    ld: -stack_size option can only be used when linking a main executable
    clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

The -Wl,-stack_size,1000000 comes from "python3-config --ldflags" which is called in configure.ac. I am reasonably sure that when building a shared library like libpython3loader, only the output of "python3-config --libs" should be used, instead of both --ldflags and --libs. Here is a patch that completes the build for me.

`python3-config --ldflags` includes a "-Wl,-stack_size,1000000" flag
on Mac OS 10.12.1 which should not be passed to the linker when building
a shared library like libpython3loader. Instead use `python3-config
--libs`.
