python26 and 27 do not compile on Ubuntu 11.11

make ARCH=88f6281 python26 returned this at the end :

To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.

Related to the shell I am using (zsh)
Works fine with bash

[Diaoul]

In fact I could resume compilation but cannot start from scratches. Same bug.
BTW, the compiled Python is missing a lot of stuff so I think it wasn't complete when I resumed

Using Ubuntu 11.11

I'm currently using Ubuntu 10.04 server for my dev VM, and every thing is fine. I did observe the same kind of thing on a 11.10 desktop. But I didn't took some time to investigate.

[Diaoul]

I'm trying Debian 6 (squeeze) which is the usual "standard" distrib for all compilation stuff

[Diaoul]

Solved with Debian 6

[zebulon501]

I think this could be left opened, as it denotes some instabilities in the build framework.

[Diaoul]

Well, the build framework is fine IMO as long as it works in a standard distrib (like Debian 6).
I wonder if its the framework's fault or a bug in latest Ubuntu releases

[Diaoul]

Reopend with framework an Request labels

I searched again for how to solve this but it gaves me headaches.
Just use a standard distrib like Debian, works fine.

I say if one wants to be able to compile python with spksrc on standard Ubuntu distrib then one should fix this.
