Issue 1562171: Fails to install on Fedora Core 5 (original) (raw)

Logged In: YES user_id=1602435

I didn't run out of disk space, I've 28GB free... I did try several times, (including make clean, rerun configure, make, make tests, and make install), and yes, it always failed in the same place. And just to make really sure, I have just tried the whole process again. I deleted my Python-2.5 directory, unpacked the whole thing again, ran configure, added -fwrapv to the Makefile, and ran make and make test. This time make test had only one "unexpected" skipped test: ... test_zipfile test_zipfile64 test_zipfile64 skipped -- test requires loads of disk-space bytes and a long time to run test_zipimport test_zlib 283 tests OK. 36 tests skipped: test_aepack test_al test_applesingle test_bsddb test_bsddb185 test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_kr test_codecmaps_tw test_curses test_gl test_imgfile test_linuxaudiodev test_macfs test_macostools test_nis test_normalization test_ossaudiodev test_pep277 test_plistlib test_scriptpackages test_socket_ssl test_socketserver test_sqlite test_startfile test_sunaudiodev test_timeout test_urllib2net test_urllibnet test_winreg test_winsound test_zipfile64 1 skip unexpected on linux2: test_bsddb

Next I ran make install... and it worked! Maybe there's some dependency on having a dbm of some sort? Anyway, sorry for the false alarm.
