Linux and Python install problem

[Matthew Miller]

Hi everyone,

I'm REALLY new to Linux and I'm stuck. I've downloaded python-1.5.2 and
untarballed the distro. However, when I run the configure shell script
using ./configure, bash reports "No such file or directory". I'm doing
this from within the python directory (ie: not a path issue as far as I
can tell) and have ensured execute permissions are set etc. Any ideas?
Thanks...
