This one seems tricky, because I tried every suggestion on www. I could do any experiment which could be helpful to compile vim with python interpreter support.
I am trying to compile vim from source with python interpreter on Ubuntu. I have installed the dependencies for vim, installed python2.7-devel and python2.7-dbg packages on Ubuntu and do the configure step like this ./configure --enable-pythoninterp --with-python-config-dir=/usr/lib/python2.7/config The config directory does contain the config.c file. The make step fails with the following error. ... objects/py_config.o:(.data+0xcc): undefined reference to `initcStringIO' objects/py_config.o:(.data+0xd4): undefined reference to `initcPickle' objects/py_config.o:(.data+0xdc): undefined reference to `initzlib' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [vim] Error 1 I have tried stable builds, tweaked around configure etc. But do not find a definitive answer. Also vim builds without the python-interpreter.
