Hello, I am following the instructions for the installation in a virtual environment. I run the command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"  I get the error “Could not link test program to Python” with the suggestion to pass LIBS or LDFLAGS variables.  From the config.log gives the following error:

clang: error: no such file or directory: 'Python.framework/Versions/3.6/Python'

This error occurs in the following line, something to do with CoreFoundation:

configure:19079: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -DNDEBUG  -I/usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.6.3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/include/python3.6m -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-stack_size,1000000  -framework CoreFoundation Python.framework/Versions/3.6/Python conftest.c  -L/usr/local/opt/python3/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib -lpython3.6m -ldl  -framework CoreFoundation  -ldl  -framework CoreFoundation  >&5

I have two questions: How can I pass the variable for this line? How can I find out what the right path is?

Please post the _complete_ output of configure and config.log, not only snippets, as they do not tell the whole story. Also, do not forget to tell us which OS you are using, as well as compiler, Python and boost versions. (From the kind of error messages you show, I would venture this is related to the following homebrew bug: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/21212 ) Best, Tiago -- Tiago de Paula Peixoto <tiago@skewed.de>
