When I try to build and install python from source It configures and makes fine but upon 'make install' I always get to this point:
Listing /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax ... Compiling /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax/__init__.py ... Compiling /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax/_exceptions.py ...

Compiling /usr/local/lib/python2.5/zipfile.py ... make: *** [libinstall] Error 1 I am currently trying to install 2.5.1. I get the error no matter what the version is. Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this? I have gone through the config.log and found no errors concerning zipfile.py or zipfile or zip. I am thinking the error is the next command after the zipfile.py installation because I can go into /usr/local/lib/python2.5 and zipfile.py is installed. Any help much appreciated.
