I had a programmer working for me who disappeared one day, and now I'm taking over his responsibilities. I need to re-configure Apache for mod_python which means I have to rebuild python. I'm working with the latest distro. I'm heavily dependent on zope, so all this has to work together. Platform is FreeBSD 5.3. I have the following questions: What is meant by pointing to this folder thus: ./configure --prefix=/usr/python When I run make test I get these errors: 2 tests failed: test_mimetools test_urllib2 48 tests skipped: test_aepack test_al test_applesingle test_asynchat test_bsddb test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_codecmaps_cn test_codecmaps_hk test_codecmaps_jp test_codecmaps_kr test_codecmaps_tw test_curses test_doctest test_fork1 test_gdbm test_gl test_imgfile test_imp test_linuxaudiodev test_logging test_macfs test_macostools test_nis test_normalization test_ossaudiodev test_pep277 test_plistlib test_queue test_scriptpackages test_socket test_socket_ssl test_socketserver test_sunaudiodev test_tcl test_thread test_threaded_import test_threadedtempfile test_threading test_threading_local test_threadsignals test_timeout test_unicode_file test_urllib2net test_urllibnet test_winreg test_winsound 13 skips unexpected on freebsd5: test_threadedtempfile test_imp test_threaded_import test_fork1 test_threading test_threadsignals test_socket test_thread test_queue test_asynchat test_doctest test_threading_local test_logging *** Error code 1 What do I do about those failed tests?
