Howdy,

I just updated my copy of the SVN version of 2.7 and got the following error messages. Did I do something wrong?

Regards,

George...

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


Failed to build these modules:
readline

Did you try a `make distclean` before compiling?

Brett,

THANKS for your response, it's appreciated.

Yes I did... I always do that. I use a more or less standard script to build 
software. I can send the script tomorrow if you would like to see it.

Regards and THANKS for your response.

George...

and attach the resulting readline.i to this report (compressed if necessary).

Brett,

Here's the file you requested.

Thanks for your help.

George...

Martin actually asked for the file and deserves the thanks.

What is /usr/lsd/Linux? This seems broken. Please take a look at /usr/lsd/Linux/include/readline/history.h - it appears to be an empty file. Make sure you have a working copy of the readline header files installed, and make sure the build process picks them up.

Martin,

I'm looking at the file right now. history.h is a link to readline.h which has 6771 characters in it.

George...

Ah, that's wrong. It must be a separate file, entirely different from
readline.h.

Martin,

I traced back to where that readline installation came from... It's the latest version from ftp.gnu.org + patches.

Did you mean to imply that you have now fixed your installation, or that
you consider it correct?

Martin,

After the rebuild/reinstall of readline, readline.h is different than history.h... AND NOT A LINK. NO OTHER CHANGES. Same build script...

I did NOT do "svn up" but this current build attempt succeeded. AND THE BEST PART... command line editing works now.  This probably explains why my python-3.x build and IDLE didn't do command line editing either. Sigh... To err is human, to get things really screwed up requires a computer.

I wonder why I had this problem with readline? Maybe it only happens with a fresh install? I'll try that.

Let me do an svn up and re-build... This worked WITHOUT INCIDENT. Go figure...

I guess you can close this bug... If I discover what the problem is/was, I'll let you guys know.

THANKS for all your help...

George...

Martin,

command line editing with 3.2 (I just did a "svn co") works now as well...

Regards and have a GREAT day,
