Compiling Python 2.2 with GCC in HPUX 10.20 does not work

Tue Mar 5 15:05:10 EST 2002

I got Python 2.2 to compile on HPUX 10.20 with gcc 2.95.3.  I got a very
similar error to what was in your message.  I actually just added the
following line to Modules/socketmodule.c at line 161 just above the
'#ifndef RISCOS' block.

int h_errno;

Otherwise, it didn't look like h_errno was ever being declared.  I can't
help you with the curses problem.  I still haven't gotten that to work.
