Hello, I am trying to compile Python 2.6.2 on my Mac which has os/x 10.5.7 I downloaded python 2.6.2 from here: - http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.2/Python-2.6.2.tar.bz2
I unpacked it. I ran these shell commands: - ./configure --prefix=/pt/p - make Near the end of the make output I see this message: . Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules: . _bsddb gdbm linuxaudiodev . ossaudiodev readline spwd . sunaudiodev . To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name. I looked in setup.py in detect_modules() It is not clear to me how to proceed. I think that I want the module: "readline" I doubt I need the other modules like linuxaudiodev, etc. If you have any clues or opinions on how I can build the module "readline", please feel free to share. Thanks, JRS -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
