Hello, and please be gentle...
I'm trying to build Python 2.5 on my Fedora Core 6 installation. I
think I've resolved most of my problems, but "make test" reports an
error for test_socket.py, shown below.
I suppose my FC6 installation is missing something, but I have no idea
what. Any ideas, directions, pointers would be most appreciated.
