(original) (raw)

Hi All,



I have a project based on Zope3 which
requires to have Python 2.3.4 on my Mac (OS X 10.3.6). The machine has
the

default Apple provided Python installed.
I had tried several times but never managed to get it work, and after reading
all available information

on how to install Python on Mac, I am
still not able to do it.



I issued the ./configure command (even
tried with ./configure --with-suffix=.exe --with-dyld). At the middle I
had received

the following message (the one marked
with ##)



...

checking locale.h presence... yes

checking for locale.h... yes

checking ncurses.h usability... no

checking ncurses.h presence... yes

configure: WARNING: ncurses.h: present
but cannot be compiled

for missing prerequisite headers?

with the preprocessor's result

configure: creating ./config.status

config.status: creating Makefile.pre

config.status: creating Modules/Setup.config

config.status: creating pyconfig.h

config.status: pyconfig.h is unchanged

creating Setup

creating Setup.local

creating Makefile



The ./configure ended with no special
error message.



After issuing the make command, I had
received the following message (actually repeated several times)



...

cc1: warning: changing search order
for system directory "/usr/local/include"

cc1: warning:   as it has already
been specified as a non-system directory

...



Then issued the "make clean",
followed by "make" again .... and received



...

Objects/fileobject.c:668: warning: implicit
declaration of function `getc_unlocked'

I would really appreciate if someone
can tell me what I did wrong or what can be the problem.



Thanks alot,
