distutils failing to read python Makefile information

I have a bug (?): distutils does not seem to be reading information from the python Makefile, and is instead using a very basic "cc" compiler with few options. This won't work since the cc compiler on the machine I am using is not great. Any suggestions of where to start? Background information: I'm using gcc 3.1 on an HPUX 10.20 computer. The version of python I used was 2.2.1. Python appears to be OK (I'm not an expert) and I only noticed the problem when I tried to compile PyOpenGL (which I need for some other software). I'm not sure if this is relevant, but python is also not picking up any information from PATH or other variables (e.g. CC). -------------------------------------------- Laurence Marks Department of Materials Science and Engineering Northwestern University Evanston, IL 60201, USA Tel: (847) 491-3996 Fax: (847) 491-7820 mailto:ldm@risc4.numis.northwestern.edu http://www.numis.northwestern.edu --------------------------------------------
