Server on Linux:gcc version 4.1.0 20060304 (Red Hat 4.1.0-3)
Which "sunaudiodev" library i need to install on linux.

Kindly help me how to install or configure or avoid this issue.

Error:
Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found:
_tkinter           bsddb185           sunaudiodev     
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.

You are misinterpreting what you are seeing. The message you get is not an error message. It works all fine, and correctly. To build the sunaudiodev module, you need Sun/Oracle Solaris, not Linux.

After complete the installation the below error message was displayed.Kindly check and revert.
./python -E ./setup.py install \
   	--prefix=/usr/local/python-2.7 \
	--install-scripts=/usr/local/python-2.7/bin \

	--root=/

What file system is this on?

After Installed the following error was through:

spprakash, do the following, in your python2.7 checkout (or download):
do 
make distclean
./configure
make
make install

If there is any failure in make/make install of the above steps, please paste that error message and also provide the file system type
(run  df -T)

(BTW, the versioning seems slightly misleading: "(Red Hat 4.1.0-3)" refers to the version of GCC, not of the operating system.

You appear to be running gcc-4.1.0-3, which I believe was shipped in Fedora Core 5.

Updating "title" metadata of the bug accordingly)

Similar error on make install.  Using Centos 5

I'm having apparently the same issue when attempting to build an RPM (based on EPEL 2.6.5 SPEC) on CentOS 5.5 i386.

A straight configure/make/make install will work fine, but when editing Modules/Setup.dist to enabled *shared* (and then uncommenting the modules that I want to enable), and passing  --enable-shared to configure, I now get the following error during make-install phase:

PYTHONPATH=/var/tmp/python27-2.7.1-1.wt_el5-root-hans//usr/lib/python2.7  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/hans/rpm/python27/Python-2.7.1: \

I have cleaned out and rebuilt this many times.  I'm going to continue digging to see if I can figure out how to get the the .so files in the right place (or put the right dir on the path).  I'm also curious what changed from version 2.6 in this regard (and hopefully I'll figure it out with some more work).

Ok, I think I have tracked down the problem to a change that happened in site.py.  In comparing against a build that worked fine for Python 2.6.5, I noticed that the Modules subdir (which contains the shared .so files) was present on the sys.path for Python 2.6 but not for 2.7.  Digging deeper let me to the site.py module.  In Python 2.7 the behavior was changed so that the Modules path element was removed from sys.path. 

This is probably best explained by the patch I applied to revert to 2.6.x behavior, which fixed the compile problem for me:

+    s = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sys.path[-1]), s)
     sys.path.append(s)

Obviously I imagine there was a reason why this change was made, so the above patch is probably not an appropriate universal fix.  I don't know anything about the original reasoning, but this change does seem to work for me on CentOS 5.5 now.

Notably, the issue I'm describing doesn't appear to have anything to do with gcc.  (Incidentally, I'm using gcc-4.1.2-48.el5.)

Hi,

I downloaded source and did the following instructions.


We use Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5.

./configure --prefix=/home/mike/python_rh_32
make
make install

I also changed the line in site.py

from:
    
s = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sys.path.pop()), s)

to:

s = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sys.path[-1]), s)

but I still get:

Did anyone slove this problem?
