That doesn't sound like a solution, but like a kludge. > I used "apt-get install python-dev" to install python. > How do I re-configure it using the --disable-thread option? You don't want your system Python to be built with "--disable-thread". Other utilities might depend on threads being available in Python. If you really want to go this route, download Python from python.org and build it from source with the required options to "./configure". -- Gerhard -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
