[microblaze-uclinux] Python on MicroBlaze-uClinux

[Ivan <salorankatu@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi again John,

while i am waiting for my ethernet board, i try to compile different
applications of the uClinux distribution to check that they run fine
over MicroBlaze. Particularly i was interesting in python. I compile it
and it works fine!!! :)

But there is a problem... python is not small, about 221K compressed
(588K if not), and the external modules are compiled in a big library
libpython2.0.a (about 3.0M) :(
Now i will try to generate only the external modules that is possible
that i need to reduce the size of the library.

For now, it's possible to use without the external modules:

Sash command shell (version 1.1.1)
/> cd usr
/usr> vi test.py
/usr> cat test.py
for i in range(10):
        print i
        print "Python works fine!!!"
/usr> python test.py
Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
