F2PY installation problem

Hi All,

I try to install F2PY-2.43.239_1844 on a Mandrake10.1 with python3.4.4 installed. The problem is when i do

"python setup.py install"

i get the following error message:

"error:invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.3/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)"

Any help? Thank you...

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 ?

Jeremy

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...
