There's a `python2.3` package with version 2.3.5 and a `python2.2` with
version 2.2.3 in it.  All of them can be installed side by side.

I'm quessing because (s)he wants to test programs on less recent 
versions of Python. Ubuntu 5.10 was already up to Python 2.4.2, so I 
can't imagine there's anything older on Ubuntu 6.06.

Why are you compiling a package that is already built for you?

Sorry to be a pest but is there anybody that could help me understand 
a) if any of this is a problem; and b) where I can learn how to fix it.

Thank you very much for any pointers.

compiling 2.3.5 on ubuntu

2006-07-10 Thread Py PY
(Apologies if this appears twice. I posted it yesterday and it was held 
due to a 'suspicious header')

I'm having a hard time trying to get a couple of tests to pass when 
compling Python 2.3.5 on Ubuntu Server Edition 6.06 LTS. I'm sure it's 
not too far removed from the desktop edition but, clearly, I need to 
tweak something or install some missling libs.

uname -a

Linux server 2.6.15-23-server #1 SMP Tue May 23 15:10:35 UTC 2006 i686 
GNU/Linux

When I compile Python I get these failing

4 skips unexpected on linux2:
test_dbm test_mpz test_bsddb test_locale

I've got libgdbm-dev and libgdbm3 packages installed.

Help!
