Maybe that's the culprit. Unfortunately I don't have a 7.0-release-* machine available for testing. Are you able to update your machine to 7-stable? I have rebuilt the python25 port on my box and placed the output here: http://www.secnetix.de/olli/tmp/python25-make.txt You could try to do the same, maybe diff(1) reveals something. Might be worth a try. Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co. KG, Marktplatz 29, 85567 Grafing b. M.
