The answer was given to you previously. To get Python to build a 32-bit extension, you must use the 32-bit version of Python to run setup.py. Otherwise, it's always going to use the 64-bit compiler. Also note that there is a typo in your command line. You have an equals sign in lib.linux=i686-2.3 where you should have a dash. -- - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
