Hello, On the python2 page it says to use a sed: sed -i "s/ndbm_libs = \[\]/ndbm_libs = ['gdbm', 'gdbm_compat']/" setup.py
and the command explanation is: This command is used to fix a build problem with the GDBM library. If I compile python-2.7.2 twice, once with the sed and once without and pipe the output to log files, diff can find no difference between the 2 log files. It would seem that the sed has no effect. Does anyone know why it was added to the book? What was this enigmatic "build problem"?
