Dear Jeff & All:
Jeff's comment that, "You must have a phantom "gcc" lying around on your
system - or at least python thinks you do," made me rethink the process,
especially because I don't (appear to) have gcc laying about (see below).
I **believe** that I had obtained my python build as a binary via "apt-get".
Thus, might the problem be that whomever uploaded the python binary had gcc
on her/his system?
I don't know the answer to that question, but I did rebuild python, this
time from source, and now numeric-atlas builds without a problem.
By the way, I use the cvs updates to unstable for everything.
The KDE releases got me going with apt-get instead of just using source and
building on my machine. I would 'apt-get' binaries, and then update them if
there is a newer source/unstable package available. Since I have unstable in
my path, there is generally no available apt-get package unless it matches
the unstable version. Thus, I don't get much this way, but the speed of
installing the available stuff is pretty good.
But there may be a downside if the system that the builder has some
substantial differences from mine (or yours?).
Experts...What do you think?
Best to all!
