Buildbot needs Twisted, so it needs the 'python-dev' to compile on ubuntu.
$ apt-get install python-dev $ apt-get install build-essentials (should be enough)
Almost all of Twisted's extension modules are optional (and portmap is hardly useful, I doubt anyone would miss it if it were gone). This failure reminds me that it would be nice if distutils had a way to express this.
So, is this something I have to install in addition to the way Twisted's being installed now? I'm working on setting up the buildbot automatically on a cloud server and all these errors are what happen if you start from a plain-vanilla Ubuntu 9.0.4 and try to just bootstrap the distutils buildbot. S
