[TheArch]

I've download the source code from the Download page and try to compile it. The error which I found in the output gived by make is:

I'm with Fedora 7 and python 2.4

[Noyga]

I think you have a problem you python install.
Here i have FC7 no problems of install.
BTW the version of Python i get from FC7 is more recent (python 2.5)

[TheArch]

I checked again and it turns out that I am with 2.5 too.
I am using yum for all except for development packages (like wesnoth 1.3.6), so it`s not in my python installation.
I have an idea:
can you give me what python packages you`ve got.
easiest way imho is to write

Code: Select all

 $ yum list  | grep -i python | grep installed

Thanks!

I think those 3 are the needed part :

So after installing python-sqlite2 python-imaging python-imaging-tk and runnig ./configure ot finnally compiled . Thanks

[gabbro]

I got this same error while compiling under the feisty fawn. Adding python-dev resolved my problem.

[Noyga]

Yes this is a known (and already reported) bug with configure that doesn't do the things correcty with the python dependancies...
