python 6 compilation failure on RHEL

G

Ganesh Reddy K

Hi All,

We are trying python 2.6 installation on an RHEL PC ,

whose 'uname -a' is (Linux 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 11:41:38
EST 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux )


But, python compilation is not successfully done and showing a failure
log. Below is the capture of the same. Please see failure log shown
in the bottom of this mail.
How to solve the failure modules mentioned in the log ( bsddb185,
dl , imageop, sunaudiodev )

Please guide me to proceed further.
