Cross Compiling Python for ARM

[Neil Benn]

Hello,

        I've been working on an embedded ARM system which boots up quick (a
beagleboard running a skinnied down version of Angstrom).  For this I need
to compile a lot of libraries from scratch.  One of the things I need is
Python; I've cross compiled Python and it works OK when I try to run it on
an image on the same system which is more complete (the same hardware
running Lucid Ubuntu).

  However when I try to run on the skinnied down image I get the following
feedback:

#
./python

-sh: ./python: not found

  I'm guessing that Python is depending on some libraries which I don't have
but as my situation is unusual I'm not sure what I am missing.  So, I'm
asking for help which is  what libraries does python depend on on Linux?

  Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Neil
