Backport macOS 10.12 build fixes for 2.7 #58

Closed mjpieters closed 7 years ago

mjpieters commented 7 years ago

Because Quicktime.h is gone, 32-bit Python builds now fail. See https://bugs.python.org/issue27806 for the fix applied to 2.7; this should be backported to 2.4-2.6.

Python 2.6 seems to work for me on Sierra.

I looked into backporting the fix to 2.4 and 2.5, it's possible, but tedious, because the files have too many differences to just fix up the patch. One has to redo it manually.

I am currently working on a backport of the patch for python 2.4.

I will do a PR when it's done

Apparently 2.6 is fine without a patch, and for 2.4 and 2.5 the patch has been backported. Closing.
