I'm pretty sure this has to do with some library changes, as it has been mentioned already several times here. I'd be glad if someone knowledgable would explain which changes and how to solve this problem in general, once and for all?
Here you might get an idea of what the problem (compiling modules on Mac OS 10.2) could be: http://www.osxgnu.org/#jagbugs I have no clue how to fix distutils to reflect this, though (and/or if this s possible at all)...

This is a separate issue from what you originally posted to the pythonmac-sig. Apple's autoconf is indeed broken, but I hadn't seen it because I'm using Fink's version. The proposed fix from osxgnu os not quite right, it should be: exit (setpgrp (1,1) == -1 ? 0 : 1);])] distutils should not have to work around a vendor's broken autoconf. Apple needs to fix this.

This is what I meant, just down a few lines on that page: What has changed in 10.2? The biggest changes seem to be that the System linked libraries in OS X have moved to separate libraries so the LDFLAGS and CFLAGS have to be set. The most common new settings are: CFLAGS=-no-cpp-precomp LDFLAGS=-ltinfo -lgcc ( setenv CFLAGS -no-cpp-precomp;setenv LDFLAGS '-ltinfo -lgcc') If a program did not use any of libraries that were moved it still works on 10.2. Example :bzip2, gnutar, rpm etc. Dinu -- Dinu C. Gherman ......................................................................
