Re: Python 2.5 from source without tcl/tk
ok... cannot get rid of the "INFO: Can't locate Tcl/Tk libs and/or headers". Now same thing but weirder with curses: i do not have ncurses-devel installed. still make trys to compile the curses module. how do i prevent that? imo the configure should have more with/without switches... or do i just miss the point, where to tell it which modules to compile and which not? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Python 2.5 from source without tcl/tk
Hi, I am going nuts here... I thought had a solution for this a few weekas ago but my hdd crashed and i put the note i wrote somewhere I had no backup. The system is a RedHat Enterprise 4 and I cannot install additional rpms. While the ./configure seems to go through fine I get a "INFO: Can't locate Tcl/Tk libs and/or headers" during the make. tk.h and tcl.h are in /usr/include In other discussions I found that a missing X11/Xlib.h can be the problem. That I don't have and cannot install. Is there a way to completely leave out the tcl stuff when compiling? I think what i did few weeks back was temporarily moving some tcl/tk files away and back after the installation... but I cannot get it to work now :( -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Interrupting ftplib.storbinary()
Hi! I have a number of ftp uploads running in parallel using ftplib.storbinary and threading and in case one of them fails I need to interrupt all the others (but not exit the program completely)... do you guys have an idea how i could implement the interruption as cleanly as possible? thanks! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

nice workaround (and it does work), thank you...
at least until when i try to install Python2.6 and forget about that
again ;)
since i was not quite satisfied by the solution (i will have to
install py25 from source on a customer's system that i dont know much
about yet at a later time and that _has_ to work then), i searched for
more reasons why it fails in the first place... and actually found
something:
~/.pydistutils.cfg
--> install_lib = /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages
... uncommented it and ran make install again --> works! :D

2.5 from source install problem with extensions
Hi! I am doing a from source installation of Python 2.5 on some old Debian machine. As the target directoy I want /opt/somename so i added it to the configure like so: ./configure --prefix=/opt/somedir The following make works fine as far as I can see. Then the make install also actually works and installs python in /opt/somedir with all its subdirectoris (bin, lib, man, include). The extensions (*.so) however get put in /usr/local/lib/... and there also in the wrong python directoy: 2.4 This is a c/p of the make install output: [...] running build_scripts running install_lib changing mode of /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_struct.so to 755 changing mode of /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/_ctypes.so to 755 [...] (How) can I change the install_dir for the extensions? Why does it use python2.4 anyway?! What env var or else is set here that I cannot find? thanks! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
