You might first want to check if there is a 'python-dev' or 'python-devel' package you can install; some distributions only install the 'config' directory with such a package. >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -q --list $(rpm -q --all | grep --ignore-case >python) | grep --ignore-case makefile >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ locate -i makefile | grep --ignore-case python >/usr/share/doc/libidn11-0.5.18/contrib/idn-python/Makefile >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -q >--whatprovides /usr/share/doc/libidn11-0.5.18/contrib/idn-python/Makefile >libidn11-0.5.18-2mdk >[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ > >Maybe I should report this as a Mandriva bug. What you've shown above is an unrelated Makefile. It's likely that the needed 'config' directory is installed by another package that you don't currently have installed. If there is no such package, or it doesn't install the 'config' directory, then you should indeed report a bug. _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
