Sadly the problem child is mod_python. :-( I was merely citing that Debian does not require any -dev packages to be installed in order to use any version of Python with mod_python or apache. You can have any combination of Python 1.5, Python 2.2, Python 2.3, Python 2.4 with mod_python2.7+apache or mod_python3.1+apache2. If you are building your own system, then of COURSE you are going to have development packages. If you are trying to install it from redhat's package system, and it requires you to install -devel packages just for it to work, then it is a shortcoming in Redhat, not mod_python. -- _________________________________________________________ Jon-Pierre Gentil PGP: 0x7E1CBA17 jabber: jgentil at sebistar.net web: www.sebistar.net "If you think education is expensive, try ignorance." _________________________________________________________ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
