python25 restFP build error with latest portfile on OS 10.4

[crkrenn@…]

Hello,

I'm having trouble installing python25 using macports 1.520 on a PPC iBook with OS 10.4.

I've done "port selfupdate", "port clean python25", "port upgrade python25", and I still get a linking error with the latest (rev 3) portfile:

Do you have any suggestion for fixing or diagnosing this? I tried the older solutions of adding gcc libraries to the python makefile with no luck.

Thanks!

-Chris

error below:

I have the same bug on a clean install of macports...

This is a rather stupid bug.

Why does python use libtool instead of gcc as link command anyway ?

gcc would link automatically with libc.

Or else, libtool should just be passed the -lc flag explicitly.
