Problem while Installing..

[Christian Scholz]

Hi everybody!

I have a strange problem right now:

'import exceptions' failed; use -v for traceback
Warning!  Falling back to string-based exceptions
Fatal Python error: Cannot create string-based exceptions
IOT trap/Abort

This I get when I try to install a new compiled Python 1.5.2 on my Linux
Box.
It was working before and did this after I told configure to use
threads..
This message appears when the installation process wants to start
compiling
the modules  (compileall.py).
I tried importing it then by hand with my installed python which worked
(The actual
python interpreter is installed before the compile process, right?) and
I then changed
the Makefile to use the installed python which worked.
But now when I want to use Python it says the same.

Any idea what happens?

I will now try to disable threads again and I will see if it works then
again..
