It looks like you didn't install the development dependencies before building. The build-dep for Lucid's 3.1 package should do the trick. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get build-dep python3.1 For good measure run the following, too: sudo apt-get install build-essential \ libbz2-dev libdb-dev libexpat1-dev libffi-dev \ libgdbm-dev liblzma-dev libncursesw5-dev \ libreadline6-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev \ tk-dev zlib1g-dev Then do a `make clean` and rebuild. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
