Description (last modified by mkoeppe)

To make installing Perl modules easier on Mac OS X, we should set the ARCHFLAGS environment variable. This is to make sure that the output of perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts and perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ccflags (picked up from system perl) do not contain -arch flags incompatible with our gcc.

This simplifies perl_term_readline_gnu (#20894), polymake (#20892), and makes installing pypolymake (#21170) as a pip package possible.

Needs review.

comment:8 Changed 6 years ago by dimpase

It looks OK on Linux; must it be tested on OSX too?

comment:9 Changed 6 years ago by mkoeppe

I have tested it on both platforms.

comment:10 Changed 6 years ago by dimpase

put in this, and then tried to install polymake on OSX, and got 

[polymake-3.0r2] checking fink installation ... The Fink package system is a mandatory prerequisite to build and use polymake under MacOS.
[polymake-3.0r2] Please refer to http://www.polymake.org/doku.php/mac for details and installation instructions.
[polymake-3.0r2] If you already have Fink installed at a non-standard location, please specify it using option --with-fink
[polymake-3.0r2] Error configuring Polymake

Really? Fink?

comment:12 Changed 6 years ago by mkoeppe

Thanks for catching this -- I killed the --without-fink by accident. Should work now.
