error compiling Python 2.3

val
Hi the Gurus,
i'm trying to compile Python 2.3 remotely
(telnet access). It is Cobalt. Linux 2. mips. gcc 2.7.2.

This is a piece of output when doing ./configure

....

## ---------------------- ##
## Running config.status. ##
## ---------------------- ##

This file was extended by python config.status 2.3, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.53. Invocation command line was

CONFIG_FILES =
CONFIG_HEADERS =
CONFIG_LINKS =
CONFIG_COMMANDS =
$ ./config.status

on ns2.spiderwebho st.net

config.status:6 95: creating Makefile.pre
config.status:6 95: creating Modules/Setup.config
config.status:2 5: error: cannot find input file: Modules/Setup.config.in
When i'm looking into Modules, there is no Setup.config up there.

Naively doing make I get:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop

Any advice? Or, maybe a pointer to the binary please?

Thanks,
Val

Cobalt? Cobalt?? Whatever...
Try reporting things from a little earlier; you might know better than
what I (or anybody else) might assume, but we can't be sure.

Specify URL of the .tgz file you downloaded.
Copy-paste the commands you entered (skip obviously dumb output, if for
example you use the v flag when extracting files) and their output.

The "This file was extended by..." does not sound very familiar, but
it's possible I never noticed it in configure's output.

I've been thinking about what the issues would be in compiling Python into native machine code, and since type information is important in Python, it seems possible that Python code can be compiled into native machine code (albeit with a lot of extra effort). For instance, type information is discovered when something is assigned to a variable or an anonymous piece of data is used in a program. Compiling Python bytecode into native...

I have a problem with displaying errors in an embedded situation. The "main program" I want to embed Python into is a windows, MFC, non-console, C++ application. My issue is that I have not been able to "catch" error messages from python, for example syntax errors. PyRun_SimpleFile() crashed, probably due to incompatible FILE structures. So I am using PyRun_SimpleString to call the python "execute" command to execute a *.py file. As a...

1.I have both 2.5 and 2.6 but both appear, under Recent Projects, as pcbuild. It would be helpful if the Python Version could be indicated. 2.With 2.6, Python compiles and executes OK but various packages are not compiled, eg sqlite3. 3.Pythonw compiles OK but not sqlite3. 4.Mike Fletcher suggests an approach (http://www.vrplumber.com/programming/mstoolkit/)

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
