Subject: [Tutor] Debian install problems.

I don't know is this is the proper place to post this but I need some help.

I am running Damn Small Linux at the moment. I enabled apt-get and
adjusted the list file to use the testing branch so I could install
python2.4. The apt-get went fine, I think. I didn't get and errors.
When I went to install quixote from a distutils package I received the
following error:

root at box:~# cd /home/dsl/Quixote-2.0
root at box:~/Quixote-2.0# python2.4 setup.py install
running install
error: invalid Python installation: unable to open
/usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)


Does anyone have any Idea where I should go from here? I have tried
other distutills installs with the same results. Any help is
appreciated. Thanks!
