[SOLVED] possible BUG on python-config ?! it doesn't print the full path of when using --ldflags

possible BUG on python-config ?! it doesn't print the full path of when using --ldflags

$ python-config --ldflags
-L/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/config -ldl -framework CoreFoundation -lpython2.7 -u _PyMac_Error Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python

it prints Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python and not /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python

when trying to use it in a Makefile it doesn't work with the python-config --ldflags but if I take the output and changes Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python to /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python it works perfectly.

I want to avoid a solution which parses the python-config output in the makefile.
I am using gcc version 4.2.1

Solution

This is a known bug, and it was fixed three weeks ago: http://bugs.python.org/issue16848. The fix will ship with the 2.7.4 release, which is scheduled to go live on April 6.
