Ok. So I tried to run the setup in README.txt for the latest linux beta emulator on the google pixel chromebook.

Here is what I got back, and the commands, "make, make test, sudo make test" didn't work.

Do you have a C compiler installed? It's mentioned here https://devguide.python.org/setup/#unixhttps://devguide.python.org/setup/#unix

I found a number of guides for building Python on Chromebooks via searching. I don't have any experience, so I'm not going to recommend one, but some of them look very detailed.

I do not have a C compiler. I do know from the chromebook support that my version of Linux is Debian. So I have that to work with.

This appears to not be a bug with Python, so I'm going to close this. If you're having additional build problems, I suggest you ask for help on the python-list mailing list, or maybe on Stack Overflow.

Understood. Thank you.
