Unable to compile pyprocessing module on SUN solaris

[Deepak Rokade]

Hi,
 I treed to comple the python 2.6 on Solaris 5.8 with gcc version 3.3.2
Initially multiprocessing package was not compile succesfully.

below errors:

Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:

_bsddb             _hashlib           _sqlite3

_ssl               _tkinter           bsddb185

gdbm               linuxaudiodev      ossaudiodev

readline

To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the
module's name.





Failed to build these modules:

_curses            _curses_panel      _multiprocessing

(Deepak:)gcc -v

Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.3.2/specs

Configured with: ../configure --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as
--with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --disable-nls

Thread model: posix

gcc version 3.3.2



Then later I modified the "setup.py" script as
        else:                                   # Linux and other unices
            macros = dict(
                HAVE_SEM_OPEN=0,
                HAVE_SEM_TIMEDWAIT=0,
                HAVE_FD_TRANSFER=0
                )

and then I could compile multiprocessing module , after "make clean"
however I got error while importing this module

bash-2.03$ python2.6
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Mar 26 2009, 11:44:45)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>

I think we should have these flags seperate for "SunOs" currently.

bash-2.03$
bash-2.03$ python2.6  -c "import sys; print sys.platform"
sunos5
bash-2.03$
