Markus, this is the same problem here - the problem is with python2.4 that is used as default and that does not include ctypes so you need to make symlink in grass to make sure it looks for python2.6 (which I have also installed) or there may be some other solution - You cannot remove python2.4 because it is used for system management.

[GRASS-dev] G65/7 ctypes compilation problem on Enterprise Linux
