yes i made the default installation location (--prefix=) c:/python2.5 _not_ c:/python25 but obviously it _has_ been necessary to make the installation of modules into the exact same _style_ of location as the msvc build, because it has obviously also been necessary to use PC/getpathp.c not getpath.c so, .pyd modules will get installed in c:/python2.5/lib/site-packages/ and most importantly they'll get _looked_ for in there! for a while, they were being installed in c:/python2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages which was a bit of a mess - that's the "unix" style of module locations. getpathp.c looks for "Lib/os.py" whilst getpath.c looks for "os.py" there's a whole _stack_ of knock-on effect little things like that. l. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
