I had the same problem (why do you have gcc-4.0.2?). -lSystemStubs is in Tiger First of all, try to install the 10.4 SDK as it will keep you away of a lot of linking problems and such stuff. (yes, it will install on 10.3.9 and since then i had no compile problems, i found this as an answer in a post in the apple discussions) Then try to compile it again after you have deleted the python source tree (or "make clean"). If that is still not working you have to edit the Makefile from Python and remove the -lSystemStubs (i think both ways work, but i am not sure) Make sure you have either a patched readline 5.1 or better a readline 5.2. Otherwise you will get segmentation faults when you are using ipython. If it is still not working, Good luck! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
