We're in need of Python for an HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC2.0 machine built with
+DD64. The porting centre doesn't have this particular combination. It
doesn't much matter which version of Python. Is this available somewhere?

Thanks!

Why not just take the source the centre has ported and slap a +DD64
onto it?

We will if there are no other alternatives. The web page shows 40 build
time dependencies so it won't be a trivial effort.

Oy, I'd not seen that when I was looking quickly. It might be
worthwhile asking the librarian to cook one up.

How big a project/application is this that it needs a 64-bit Python?!?

The application isn't big but it needs to import some shared libraries
that are 64-bit.

Can you say what those shared libraries are? HP works very hard
to persuade library providers not to make the mistake of providing
their products in only one data model.

We need to create a shared library for a 64-bit application (Tecplot).
Our shared library uses an object request broker, omniORB. So we're
trying to build a 64-bit version of omniORB. During the omniORB build
process, python is run, importing some of the shared libraries that the
process created. Thus we need a 64-bit python.
