    Try linking your current python install to the one it's looking for:

    Code:
    ln -s /usr/lib/python2.3 /usr/lib/whatever_python_is_called

    I have searched the /usr/lib and the problem is I have /usr/lib/python2.3 but I do not have /config/Makefile within /usr/lib/python2.3

    Thanks again

    Do you have it in /usr/lib/python3.4 ?

    No, /usr/lib/python2.3 is the only python entry in /usr/lib..

    I see. You're probably missing the python-devel package. Try installing that.

    After 2 hours of googling I have found all of the rpm packages (ordinary version with development one) of python 2.3.4. But when i want to install
    python2.3-devel-2.3-3pydotorg.i386.rpm i get the following message

    "Failed dependencies: python2.3 = 2.3 is needed by python2.3-devel-2.3-3pydotorg"

    But as i said, python2.3.4 is already installed.

    Thank you for your interest...
