Install problem on Ubuntu 11.10

Hi,

I've been trying to get bbfreeze installed on Ubuntu 11.10 with little success. I have tried with various versions, including the latest version here on github.

When running the setup.py script I get the following output: http://pastebin.com/DzTj5SiC

I've seen this issue before and it was caused by the -lz flag for the linker. Hacking at setup.py to remove the -lz from the flags didn't seem to help though.

You should be able to workaround the issue by calling the command to link console.exe manually and adding a "-lssl -lcrypto -lz" after /usr/lib/python2.7/config/libpython2.7.a like in

gcc -pthread -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Xlinker -export-dynamic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Xlinker -zmuldefs -Xlinker --disable-new-dtags -lssl -lcrypto -lssl -lcrypto -L/usr/lib -lz build/temp.linux-i686-2.7/bbfreeze/console.o build/temp.linux-i686-2.7/bbfreeze/getpath.o /usr/lib/python2.7/config/libpython2.7.a -lssl -lcrypto -lz -L/usr/lib/python2.7/config -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm -o build/lib.linux-i686-2.7/bbfreeze/console.exe

Calling the command manually works just fine :)

I'm a little lost though, after I call this command how do I get bbfreeze to actually install? Or should I call the command from setup.py instead of calling linked_shared_object?

python setup.py build gcc ... # call gcc manually python setup.py install
