Thanks for answering one question for me: why the current python source rpm from cooker wouldn't compile on Mandrake 7.2's gcc. I compiled gcc-2.96 source rpm on LM7.2, then recompiled it using 2.96, and now will hopefully be able to compile the latest python on that platform as well. -- Stephen On Friday 24 August 2001 07:00 pm, civileme wrote: > I don't know what kgcc is, but I know most people have had trouble building > our kernels with it.
