[issue17450] Failed to build _sqlite3
New submission from Christina Chan: Tried to install python 2.7.3 on Linux 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 x86_64 with the following steps:- 1. after gunzip, did ./configure in Python-2.7.3 directory 2. make here is the error I ran into when executing make:- Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found: bsddb185 dl imageop sunaudiodev To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name. Failed to build these modules: _sqlite3 I looked through the README and history and tried the followings but not successful:- 1. yum install libsqlite3-dev or libsqlite3-devel - cannot find either. 2. uncomment the Modules/Setup to build the bsdbb185 but that results in error. Question:- 1. Is this module _sqlite3 needed? If it is, how to fix this compiler error? -- components: Installation files: make_log.txt messages: 184426 nosy: cchan_95125 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Failed to build _sqlite3 type: compile error versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file29436/make_log.txt ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue17450> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue17450] Failed to build _sqlite3
Christina Chan added the comment: Hi, I am new to python and I am actually running script developed by others using python. So, In order for the script to use SQLite, does it means that it will have import SQLite in the script or how could one tell if SQLite is needed? For the build dependencies, as the make is successful other than SQLite, does it means to execute both yum line and then re-execute make again? Thanks.
