OK. I didn't realise parallel builds did that. http://users.aims.ac.za/~jan/sage/python-2.6.4.p9.log [444K] > It would also be helpful if you could download Python 2.6.4 from the > python web site and see if that builds this module.

I will do this after the ubuntu 11.04 distribution is actually released (30 April). I am interested in sage building on that. Python bug tracker is not loading for me now. Google cached page is only loading in text version. Original page I have not seen yet from google search for "python bug tracker crypt.so failed to build" is at: http://bugs.python.org/issue9762 > This could be something specific to Sage- we have made numerous > patches to Python 2.6.4, but it could be a more general problem.

I did, I only found several year old problems, most notably on gentoo in 2005 due to a USE FLAG including hardened, building cvs, system python 2.3.4: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91130 Regards, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
