compiling python 3000 on debian etch

[Rustom Mody]

Ive been trying to compile python 3000 on debian etch
And on running test I get:

4 skips unexpected on linux2:
test_tcl test_dbm test_ssl test_bsddb

Can someone tell me what packages I am missing?

Here is the home page for the Debian source package for Python 2.5--it
lists the build dependencies.

http://packages.debian.org/source/etch/python2.5

These dependencies shouldn't be much different for Python 3.0. Be
sure to use dev versions of libraries, the packages should have -dev
on the end.

Ok Thanks
With that help Ive got it down to this (output of (end of) make)

Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
_bsddb _sha256 _sha512
dbm

Cant figure out what they are or where they should come from...
