Problems with Python3 Package #105

Closed DjangoDurano closed 5 months ago

DjangoDurano commented 5 months ago

Hello,

I updated the python3.9 package, after that I got some issues with my python program. I don't have this issue with the previous build. I got an ctypes error:


import ctypes
File "/usr/lib64/python3.9/ctypes/__init__.py", line 8, in
from _ctypes import Union, Structure, Array
ImportError: libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory```

Seems to be that there is some error within the build. I searched google, and read that maybe that can be the issue.

Hi,

The problem is that unraid has libffi-3.4.4 which is the current version of slackware.

We have added version 3.3 but you have to use it at your own risk and before installing libffi-3.3 you have to delete the one that comes installed with unraid, for this you can use the command removepkg libffi-3.4.4.

Best regards.

@Mcklaren Can you explain this in detail for me please? Unraid uses libffi-3.4.4 this is newer than your libffi-3.3 correct? I don't update my unraid system to a newer version, libffi should be same version as before. I only update the python-3.9 package from nerdtools. Before I updated python my python script worked without any issues. After I updated python I got the libffi error. Have you downgrade libffi version in your build script? I'm not very deep into building slackware packages, but I don't get on the point why the same libffi version as before got me an error on your newer python package.

Best regards.
