The way I get python is to use the url in the book. http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.6/Python-2.7.6.tar.xz For python2, I back up to the parent: http://www.python.org/ftp/python and get the max number that starts with a 2 (or 3 or python3). That should still be valid. My script uses 'curl -3 -L -s -m30 $url' to get the page, but for some reason, pages on some sites are not always fetched properly. As you can see in this instance, the python page was fetched properly for python3, but not python2. The next time the script is run, it will probably be OK. Note that on the same page, mercurial had the same problem. That site has a more frequent problem. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
