When building Python I get this:

"building dbm using ndbm
*** WARNING: renaming "_dbm" since importing it failed: build/lib.linux-i686-3.3-pydebug/_dbm.cpython-33dm.so: undefined symbol: dbm_nextkey

Failed to build these modules:
_dbm "

I'm running Arch and I have gdbm installed so shouldn't it be building dbm with gdbm?

Python 3.3 is not longer maintained. Please create a new issue if you are having problems building a current version (3.9+).
