This is a system configuration issue, not a Python issue: you seem to be missing a header file. First, make sure it exists ( /usr/lib/gcc/ i486-linux-gnu/4.1.3/include/limits.h ) and that you have permission to read it. If it's there, just sudo chmod a+r it and see if that helps. Also try installing Ubuntu's standard essential build tools ( sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential ) and see if that helps -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
