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.

This functionality was implemented in f0fe449, making the patch
unnecessary.
|
|
This makes the following work:
>>> import webbrowser
>>> webbrowser.open("http://serenityos.org")
As well as this well-known easter egg:
>>> import antigravity
Pretty cool! :^)

This enables shared library support for Python and removes
a few patches which are not necessary anymore now that
we have dlfcn support.

I have my environment configured to use https://pre-commit.com/.
I guess the scripts were changed recently to lint all ports, and
the python port was barfing on my system because of this bug.

we need to link against LibCrypt and subsubsequently LibCore (which
LibCrypt does not link against itself due to a circular dependency
issue).
Not sure why this broke, it worked when I last updated the port.

Released on 2021-04-04 as a hotfix release superseding 3.9.3.

The addition of some IPv6 related things makes the configure script
think we support it now. We don't.

Fixes #5710.

Released on 2021-02-19, no patch changes required.

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.

With the right include paths and linker flags, the _zlib module now
builds & works. :^)
|
|
Attempting to import C-extensions (lib-dynload/*.so) currently asserts
in the dynamic loader - let's just build them statically instead for the
time being.
This makes a large number of modules available for use and the port a
lot more functional! :^)
|
|
This was missed in c702845.
|
|
This makes building the _ctypes module succeed. We still can't import
it, but hey, that's progress! :^)
|
|
I thought I had committed this, but it's .gitignore'd. Add an exception
to Ports/.gitignore and add it for real this time. :^)
Fixes #5008.

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. :^)
