[3.14] gh-157983: Skip test for ctypes.util.find_library when ld is mold (GH-157984) - #158009
Conversation
…ld (pythonGH-157984) The `mold` linker does not support the `-t` option that `ctypes.util.find_library` uses. Since `find_library` is soft-deprecated and explicitly documented as *not expected to be updated for additional platforms and configurations*, we skip the test in the known failing case.

No backport for 3.10 needed as there's no riscv64 Ubuntu buildbot for 3.10. |

The
moldlinker does not support the-toption thatctypes.util.find_libraryuses.Since
find_libraryis soft-deprecated and explicitly documented asnot expected to be updated for additional platforms and configurations,
we skip the test in the known failing case.
