It is no more possible to build Python outside its source directory. Try using: cd <python sources directory> mkdir release cd release ../configure make Attached patch should fix this issue. |

> Which is platform with broken VPATH support and/or make ? Well, my commit is maybe useless... I tried to have two builds at the same time: - debug in Python source code (e.g. ~/python) - release in a subdirectory in the Python source code (e.g. ~/python/release) If I compile in debug mode before building in release mode, the build of the release mode fails because make finds some objects in source tree (and so think that it doesn't need to build them). I tried to avoid completly VPATH to support this use case, but I'm not sure that it is possible (at least, it doesn't work: it fails to build pgen in the release). |

I wonder why you are not stopped by: configure: error: source directory already configured; run "make distclean" there first. (for sure you remove some files but not all) Applied patch is save but I cannot understand what actually is resolved. Note that someone already report as bug(?) attempt to build outside when first project is compiled in source. |

Building outside of the source directory was supported, if the source directory was clean. In practice, the source directory could be unclean as long as a few files were not there (Parser/*.o, Modules/_testembed), so it was quite annoying. If the patch allows people to build inside the source directory and in other directories without cleaning, I’m +1! |

I don't have this issue anymore (but I also don't build Python outside the source directory anymore), I already applied my patch, so I consider that the issue can be closed. If someone has a similar problem, it's maybe better to open a new issue. |
