The file you downloaded is a prebuilt binary. For those, you have to use: python setup.py build --skip install Prebuilt binaries are similar to Python eggs in that they do not require a compiler. Unlike eggs, they give you full advantage of the distutils install command and all its options. http://www.egenix.com/products/python/mxBase/#Installation > I get following messages: > > running install > running build > running mx_autoconf > gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict- > prototypes -fPIC -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -I/usr/local/include -c _configtest.c > -o _configtest.o > _configtest.c: In function 'main': > _configtest.c:4: warning: statement with no effect > gcc -pthread _configtest.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib64 -o > _configtest > success! > removing: _configtest.c _configtest.o _configtest > gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict- > prototypes -fPIC -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -I/usr/local/include/python2.5 -I/usr/ > local/include -c _configtest.c -o _configtest.o > success! > removing: _configtest.c _configtest.o > macros to define: [('HAVE_STRPTIME', '1')] > macros to undefine: [] > running build_ext > > building extension "mx.DateTime.mxDateTime.mxDateTime" (required) > building 'mx.DateTime.mxDateTime.mxDateTime' extension > gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict- > prototypes -fPIC -DUSE_FAST_GETCURRENTTIME -DHAVE_STRPTIME=1 -Imx/ > DateTime/mxDateTime -I/usr/local/include/python2.5 -I/usr/local/ > include -c mx/DateTime/mxDateTime/mxDateTime.c -o build/temp.linux- > x86_64-2.5_ucs2/mx-DateTime-mxDateTime-mxDateTime/mx/DateTime/ > mxDateTime/mxDateTime.o > gcc: mx/DateTime/mxDateTime/mxDateTime.c: No such file or directory > gcc: no input files > error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 > > I am able to import mx but not mx.TextTools or mx.DateTime. > > Please help to install this module. > > Thanks in advance > M -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Feb 25 2008) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ :::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,MacOSX for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
