<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Hi Experts,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2> I am pretty
new to Python. I have been trying to compile python</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>on HP-UX 11.23 IPF machine. I tried to build with
following configure </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>option.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>./configure --prefix=/opt/iexpress/python
--enable-ipv6 --with-signal-module --with-threads</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>machine info : HP-UX beta B.11.23 U
ia64</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>gcc : gcc version 3.4.3</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>While configure, I faced the following
pbm,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2><EM>checking ipv6 stack type...
./configure[13033]: /usr/xpg4/bin/grep: not
found.<BR>unknown<BR></EM></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Then I checked the config.log to find the entires
for IPV6;</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2><EM>configure:12811: checking if --enable-ipv6 is
specified<BR>configure:12822: result: yes<BR>configure:12954: checking ipv6
stack type<BR>conftest.c:78:22: features.h: No such file or
directory<BR>conftest.c:78:48: /usr/local/v6/include/sys/v6config.h: No such
file or directory<BR>configure:13111: result: unknown<BR></EM></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>But, configure didnot produce any error
mesage.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>So plz advice whether Python supports the IPV6
option on HP-UX. Bez, I know ipv6</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>differs from linux and HP-UX. If I no need to
worry about this and build python. How </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>to check whether IPV6 option works well with my
python.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Anyone please help to how to test the
<STRONG>IPV6 functionality test.</STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Is there any specific IPV6 test available with
python. I could not</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>find any specific testsuit for IPV6 under test
directory.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Plz share ur comments</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Advance Thanks,</FONT></DIV>
