Remove ppc from compilation flags in python setup scripts
python, python-imaging-library
Solution
The easiest solution (for a single or a few C files) is to copy the compiler line, edit it, and invoke it manually, then run setup.py again - it should notice that this step was already done.
To make setup.py not use these options anymore, you need to change the Makefile in Python's config directory, and remove the options.
Problem
I'm trying to install PIL on an Intel Mac OS X Leopard machine. Unfortunately, "setup.py build" thinks it should be compiling for ppc. ``` gcc -arch ppc -arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-long-double -no-cpp-precomp -mno-fused-madd -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -DHAVE_LIBJPEG -DHAVE_LIBZ -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Headers -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Headers -I/opt/local/include/freetype2 -IlibImaging -I/sw/include -I/opt/local/include -I/Users/adam/Development/pinax-env/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/include/python2.5 -c libImaging/GifEncode.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/libImaging/GifEncode.o ``` This fails because I don't have the ppc arch files available on my machine (nor do I want to install them). How can I tell setup.py to only do i386? I've looked in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework for a config file to no avail.
