What is this, and how can I get rid of it?
cory@cory2k ~/cvs/Twisted $ python setup.py build -c mingw32 running build running build_py running build_ext error: Python was built with version 6 of Visual Studio, and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed.
I had no problems building these extensions on Python 2.2 following the instructions at http://sebsauvage.net/python/mingw.html . I did the same thing substituting 2.3 for 2.2, and got the message above.
Why doesn't it work any more? --compiler=mingw32 is still valid on the command line.
The above message is generated by the MSVC code, so the only reason I can see is that your option didn't pass through to build_ext.
