[Pythonmac-SIG] CVS compile error: bz2 --> out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)

[Daniel Lord]

Anybody,

I got the error below and it says to run ranlib (which I thought was 
superceded on OSX by libtool so that's what I'd use). But I don't know 
exactly what options to give libtool and reading the voluminous man 
page didn't clear it up. Anybody care to give me a hint? I've been 
trying to figure out how to compile a simple C extension to python as a 
dynamic library and cannot get that to work with libtool either.
