Actually, let me correct that. Seems it was a combination of the change in configure and the links that did the trick. I just ran configure again (after doing the CVS), and it failed again. So, I went through the configure script and changed all entries of 2.3 and 2_3 (if they were Python-related) to 2.4 or 2_4. That worked without any errors, and I've now started the make. So, it is an easy fix, but more than just the above lines... Rainer
