Hi All, The setup.py file in PyGreSQL does not work with newer distutils (at least not for the distutils in Python 2.0). The new versions of distutils require you to use an instance of a new Python class called Extension to configure the compiled extensions. I have attached a modification of the setup.py script which works on my system (a Linux system with Python 2.0, PyGreSQL 3.1, and PostgreSQL 7.1 December CVS). Although I have hard-wired the location of my pgsql include and lib directories, it is pretty obvious what has to be changed. Bernie
