You forgot to mention what platform you're using, so I cannot give you exact details, but most platforms that have prebuilt Python binaries have special development packages available (usually called "python-dev" or something similar). The standard source package doesn't build under 2.5; 3.X is a reworked version of Python, and hardly any code written for 2.X works out of the box. There's no way you can build a 2.5 binary using a header file for 3.1. </F> _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
