On RHEL 5 (and therefore presumably CentOS), the corresponding command looks something like this: sudo yum install \ readline-devel openssl-devel gmp-devel \ ncurses-devel gdbm-devel zlib-devel expat-devel \ libGL-devel tk tix gcc-c++ libX11-devel glibc-devel \ bzip2 tar findutils pkgconfig tcl-devel tk-devel \ tix-devel bzip2-devel sqlite-devel \ db4-devel \ libffi-devel You'll want to rerun "configure" after installing these dependencies. FWIW neither the devguide nor http://docs.python.org/using/unix.html#building-python seems to have a handy guide to how to install all useful build-time deps on various distros. I added something similar for PyPy here: http://codespeak.net/pypy/dist/pypy/doc/getting-started-python.html#translating-the-pypy-python-interpreter at the PyCon sprint.
