Q: Installing Python ... many problems !

[Holger Kipp]

Hi 2 all,

after creating a make-file and executing the make-command, the system gave
me following message and the procedure stopped:

-------------- snipp ---------------
>Include/pyport.h:240: warning: `struct winsize' declared inside parameter
list
>Include/pyport.h:240: warning: its scope is only this definition or

I haven't got a clue, what's going on with this installation ...
What does this message mean? Which mistake have I done?
I'm sitting here for a long time (>6 hours) and going slowly mad...

Please help me ...
