Hi all, I've got a tricky problem with a self-compiled python2.4.4 under Windows Vista. I compiled with Visual Studio 8 Standard (.NET 2005).
Python greets with the right header: Python 2.4.4 (#71, Oct 19 2007, 18:49:44) [MSC v.1400 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 I started the Visual Studio Shell and tried to get some extensions using setuptools (easy_install): python ez_setup.py readline [...] Best match: readline 2.4.2 [..Downloading..] Running readline-2.4.2\setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir c:\users\sweh\appdata\local\temp\easy_install-nnn9di\ readline-2.4.2\egg-dist-tmp-fqezb_ error: Setup script exited with error: Python was built with version 8.0 of Visual Studio, and extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but it isn't installed. Does anyone know, why setuptools cannot find VS8? I'm sure the system variables are set correctly as in %VCDIR%\bin\vcvars32.bat. regards, -- Sebastian Wehrmann gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstrasse 29 · 06112 halle/saale · germany www.gocept.com · work. +49 345 122988912 · fax. +49 345 12298891 _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
