So what you're saying is you can't troubleshoot linking problems.

Sounds like it to me.

is that the OP would be better served by posting the problem
statement in a group more closely related to the actual problem.

Well do feel free to suggest which group might be appropriate for C compilation
issues.

We may, I trust, presume that the Python source he is building is
production code that has successfully been built before by other
people? If so, then it's not a language issue, and that is enough
to put it beyond comp.lang.c's brief.

There's zero logical connection there. People experience similar issues all
the time with C, should they all be denied help?

get someone else to compile your code for you?

I tell the compiler to do it. Don't you?

You sure you don't get someone else to run the compiler for you?

Oh dear, if stuck go in circles, posted comparisons conveniently ignored.

As expected.

Is K&R outdated? Hmm, let me think about that for a nanosecond...

Their language spec is certainly outdated. You think its current?

that compilation no longer depends on the system you are using
and has now become a language attribute? Can you hear the
chuckles yet?

Laughing my socks off. Time to plonk, perhaps?

Laughing at your own replies now? Well at least we can agree they are
laughable.

Wtf has the language standard got to do with anything?

>
Yep; time to plonk.

Oh dear, really can't argue your way out of a wet paper bag can you so
resort to the standard issue lost the argument last resort of drop-the-mic.

Bye-bye.

Good riddance.
