I believe (Googling seems to back this up) that this means that you need to install the python-devel (or however your system spells it) package to use distutils. (You can use SpamBayes without running setup.py, of course - just manually put the spambayes package directory on the PYTHONPATH, and run the scripts from wherever you like). =Tony.Meyer -- Please always include the list (spambayes at python.org) in your replies (reply-all), and please don't send me personal mail about SpamBayes. http://www.massey.ac.nz/~tameyer/writing/reply_all.html explains this. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
