Motivation for this change

Python 3.8 fails to build on macOS for two reasons:

  • python-3.x-distutils-C++.patch fails to apply cleanly.

  • An #include for <util.h> is missing, causing a build failure:

    ./Modules/posixmodule.c:6586:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'openpty' is invalid in C99
    if (openpty(&master_fd, &slave_fd, NULL, NULL, NULL) != 0)
    ^

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Sorry, something went wrong.

Python 3.8 fails to build on macOS for two reasons:

* python-3.x-distutils-C++.patch fails to apply cleanly.
* An #include for <util.h> is missing, causing a build failure:

    ./Modules/posixmodule.c:6586:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'openpty' is invalid in C99
        if (openpty(&master_fd, &slave_fd, NULL, NULL, NULL) != 0)
            ^

Use the correct version of python-3.x-distutils-C++.patch, and add a
patch to #include <util.h>.
