Re: Can't perform "python setup.py build" on RedHat CentOS release 5.4 Linux

If /usr/include/python2.4 is in your include path, yet Python.h cannot be found, then I'd be moved to believe that you are missing the python-devel package. Have you checked for that?

Kind regards,
    Nils

Subject: [Image-SIG] Can't perform "python setup.py build" on RedHat CentOS     release 5.4     Linux

Gentlemen:
We use Python and a package called ReportLab to produce pdf files. The
package requires the use of the PIL package. I've installed these
packages on many systems, and never had a problem until we moved to a
new web hosting service for ourselves. On the server with the OS noted
in the subject line I get the following errors (full error text in
attachment):

sh-3.2# python setup.py build
running build
running build_py
running build_ext

gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -O2 -g -pipe -Wall

libImaging/ImPlatform.h:14:2: error: #error Sorry, this library requires
support for ANSI prototypes.
libImaging/ImPlatform.h:17:2: error: #error Sorry, this library requires
ANSI header files.

...and so on

If any can tell me what I'm missing on our new server I'd be much
obliged.

Thanks,
Dan
