Re: Re: build Phoenix from source fails

Normally, I download a Phoenix source snapshot, but there hadn't been any 
for a few days, so I thought I'd try building from the actual source.

As to why -- it is extremely important to only have one C++ runtime library 
in an application, otherwise the application may crash in hard to debug 
ways.  (Our application embeds Python with C++ extensions and wxWidgets is 
in C++.)  The available wheels only cover a tiny subset of the choices of 
compilers and the associated runtime libraries.  And there are no wheels 
for Linux, since every distribution uses a different compiler version.
