Hi Amine,
Could you try removing your build directory (rm -r build) and re-running the first command (note: unless you're using gem5-stable you'll want to run scons build/ALPHA/gem5.opt)? Could you make sure that you have all the following packages installed: apt-get install gcc g++ build-essential python python-dev You might see that error if there is trouble finding your compiler. Another thing you may want to try is looking at build/scons_config.log as it might have some clues as to why python.h isn't being found. Hope that helps, Ali On 14.05.2012 15:08, Amine Marref wrote: > Hi, > > This question relates to the process of configuring/building M5 on Ubuntu 10.

After that I installed python-dev which resulted in Python.h being created in the required folder. However for reasons beyond my understanding, scons seems to not see Python.h in the folder. My guess was that scons is using some cached configuration that has not been updated after installing python-dev and hence still cannot see Python.h. > > What I did was run [3] but I did not get much luck.
