Failed to build these modules:_ctypes

P

PS

Hello all

I can't install neither python 2.6.1 nor 2.6.2 because an error during
compilation of _ctypes module, I don't need the module but I don't
know how to instruct to skip it.

The plattform is Suse 11.0

The steps I performed are the following:

../configure --prefix $HOME/app/Python-2.6.2
make

The last command from make with its error is the following

gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-i686-2.6/home/ps/soft/

Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
bsddb185 dl imageop
sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for
the module's name.


Failed to build these modules:

You only get a warning, right? So a subsequent 'make install' should work.
