[New-bugs-announce] [issue8149] libffi's configure is not executable

[Gustavo Narea]

New submission from Gustavo Narea <gustavonarea at 2degreesnetwork.com>:

Download Python 2.5.5 and run ./configure: "_ctypes.so" won't be compiled because the ./configure file for libffi in ctypes is not executable.

Here's the output:
====
env: Python-2.5.5/Modules/_ctypes/libffi/configure: Permission denied
Failed to configure _ctypes module
building '_ctypes_test' extension
