Problem with python extension install


Hi all,

I'm running into an odd problem attempting to install the ZopeInterface package on Cygwin.

The relevant part of the build output is below. The failure "cannot find -lpython2.4" appears to be merely because the link path (-L option) isn't being set correctly; the link line is missing the "-L/ usr/lib/python2.4" option.

I'm posting here in case any Cygwin-using Python experts can pass along pointers on triaging (or solving ;-) this problem.

Thanks!
John Whitley

P.S. Thanks to folks who responded to my recent rebaseall question. Alas, Google didn't bring up any of the recent
discussion threads on that topic; my bad.
