Simone, are you talking about the instructions here: http://docs.geoserver.org/1.7.x/en/docguide/install.html So in the block where we tell people to install make and setup-tools we should also cite build-essentials and python-dev? In fact looking at my system I do have both installed. Sorry about that, when I wrote the instructions I had a already setup Linux machine and a virgin Windows one, that's why the Windows instructions were easier to follow Cheers Andrea -- Andrea Aime OpenGeo - http://opengeo.org Expert service straight from the developers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
