2021-08-03Ports: Update Python to 3.10.0rc1Linus Groh
Released on 2021-08-02. https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3100rc1/ This contains the first upstreamed change for SerenityOS, making the webbrowser module work with Browser out of the box :^)
2021-07-10Ports: Add a patch for Python's setup.py to consider /usr/localLinus Groh
This makes it find more includes and libraries than by default when crosscompiling.
2021-07-09Ports: Remove Python setlocale patch that's no longer neededLinus Groh
Since 4cd45f5, setlocale() always pretends to succeed.
2021-07-07Ports: Update Python to 3.9.6Linus Groh
Released on 2021-06-28. https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-396/
2021-05-09Ports: Add note about Python webbrowser patch upstreamingLinus Groh
2021-05-09Ports: Remove obsolete rlimit patch for PythonLinus Groh
Stubs for getrlimit()/setrlimit() have been added in 1c3c072.
2021-05-06Ports: Always set Python MACHDEP to version-less 'serenityos'Linus Groh
This is used for `sys.platform`, so it's important to get it right and ideally never change it again. When not cross-compiling this would append the `uname -r` version number, so let's explicitly override the generated value and set it to `serenityos`. Various other systems do this as well.
2021-05-06Ports: Remove Python printf fraction length patchLinus Groh
This functionality was implemented in f0fe449, making the patch unnecessary.
2021-05-06Ports: Register Browser in the Python webbrowser moduleLinus Groh
This makes the following work: >>> import webbrowser >>> webbrowser.open("http://serenityos.org") As well as this well-known easter egg: >>> import antigravity Pretty cool! :^)
2021-05-06Ports: Update Python to 3.9.5Linus Groh
Released on 2021-05-03. https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-395/
2021-04-25Ports: Remove obsolete patches for PythonGunnar Beutner
This enables shared library support for Python and removes a few patches which are not necessary anymore now that we have dlfcn support.
2021-04-06Ports: Update Python to 3.9.4Linus Groh
Released on 2021-04-04 as a hotfix release superseding 3.9.3. https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-394/
2021-02-21Ports: Update Python to 3.9.2Linus Groh
Released on 2021-02-19, no patch changes required. https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-392/
2021-02-15Everywhere: Canonicalize 'ReadMe' capitalizationBen Wiederhake
We now follow a common capitalization throughout the project: ./Ports/openssh/ReadMe.md ./Ports/python3/patches/ReadMe.md ./Ports/ReadMe.md ./Meta/Lagom/ReadMe.md ./ReadMe.md This filename is still obvious enough to be seen immediately.
2021-01-18Ports: Add Python 3.9Linus Groh
The current version of our Python port (3.6.0) is over four years old by now and has (or had, I haven't actually tried it in a while) some limitations - time for an upgrade! The latest Python release is 3.9.1, so I used that version. It's a from-scratch port, no patches are taken from the previous port to ensure the smallest possible amount of code is patched. The BuildPython.sh script is useful so I kept it, with some tweaks. I added a short document explaining each patch to ease judging their underlying problem and necessity in the future. Compared to the old Python port, this one does support both the time module as well as threading (at least _thread) just fine. Importing modules written in C (everything in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/lib-dynload) currently asserts in Serenity's dynamic loader, which is unfortunate but probably solvable. Possibly related to #4642. I didn't try building Python statically, which might be one possibility to circumvent this issue. I also renamed the directory to just "python3", which is analogous to the Python 3.x package most Linux distributions provide. That implicitly means that we likely will not support multiple versions of the Python port at any given time, but again, neither do many other systems by default. Recent versions are usually backwards compatible anyway though, so having the latest shouldn't be a problem. On the other hand bumping the version should now be be as simple as updating the variables in version.sh, given that no new patches are required. These core modules to currently not build - I chose to ignore that for now rather than adding more patches to make them work somehow, which means they're fully unavailable. This should probably be fixed in Serenity itself. _ctypes, _decimal, _socket, mmap, resource, termios These optional modules requiring 3rd-party dependencies do currently not build (even with depends="ncurses openssl zlib"). Especially the absence of a readline port makes the REPL a bit painful to use. :^) _bz2, _curses, _curses_panel, _dbm, _gdbm, _hashlib, _lzma, _sqlite3, _ssl, _tkinter, _uuid, nis, ossaudiodev, readline, spwd, zlib I did some work on LibC and LibM beforehand to add at least stubs of missing required functions, it still encounters an ASSERT_NOT_REACHED() / TODO() every now and then, notably frexp() (implementations of that can be found online easily if you want to get that working right now). But then again that's our fault and not this port's. :^)
