[XML-SIG] Problem Installing PyXML

[Dillabaugh, Craig]

Hello,
I am writing this message because I've run into some problems installing
PyXML, and the README indicated I should report my problems here.

My installation is on SUN Ultra running SUN OS 5.7.  I am not root on this
machine so I've installed Python in a non-standard directory:

/genesis1/cdillaba/Python2.2.1

I've tried to put PyXML in

/genesis1/cdillaba/Python2.2.1/PyXML-0.8

I am installing from the tar file, my build command is:

/genesis1/cdillaba/Python2.2.1/python setup.py build

The script runs successfully for some time but chokes at the following
point:

...
running build_ext
Traceback (most recent call last)

Thanks for any help,
