According to the error messages: ###### gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 -c _mysql.c -o build/temp.linux-i686-2.3/_mysql.o -I'/usr/include/mysql' _mysql.c:41:19: mysql.h: No such file or directory ###### the necessary MySQL header files can't be found in '/usr/include/mysql'. You mentioned Red Hat 9, so you probably need to install something like the 'mysql-devel-3.23.54a-11.i386.rpm' file. Here is a link to a mirror with that file: ftp://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/redhat/linux/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/mysql-devel-3.23.54a-11.i386.rpm > Can I add datetime module to Python 2.2.2? You may find: http://www.egenix.com/files/python/mxDateTime.html useful, although I can't confirm that it has the exact same API as the one in the Standard Library. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
