Python 2.3.3 configure error

[simon witt]

Hi,

I'm having trouble installing Python 2.3.3 on a Solaris platform.

I run the ./configure script and get these errors:

########################
checking term.h usability... no
checking term.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: term.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: term.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: term.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to address@hidden ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
checking for term.h... yes
##########################

The script ends up with this error:

##########################
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile.pre
config.status: creating Modules/Setup.config
config.status: error: cannot find input file: Modules/Setup.config.in
###########################

OS Info
-----------
$ uname -a
SunOS clannad 5.8 Generic_108528-16 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60

I ran the configure script using gcc and cc, but with the same errors.

The config.log is included if you need.

regards

Simon Witt
