installing pyodbc

I just downloaded the pyodbc source to try and install on my Linux FC3
box. I see that there is a setup.py file, but when I try to do a
'python setup.py build' (or just 'python setup.py') I get

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 27, in ?
revision = latest_revision ('.')
File "setup.py", line 25, in latest_revision
return int(output)
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): exported

The README.txt doesn't really say anything about how to install, exept
that the easiest way is to use the Windows installer. That's fine for
Windows, but what about Linux?

Thanks for any help.

Have you read the http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyodbc/ summary page
where the "Operating System" indicates which platforms are supported?
That might be relevant information.

No I didn't. Thanks for the reply. I've moved on to mx.ODBC.

I believe this bug is also related to the other problem I just reported. OS = Windows XP SP2 DB = Microsoft Access XP PROBLEM: When you use + (or &) to concatenation columns together and the columns are of type text and the combined length exceed 255 this causes pyodbc to fail and python to crash.

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,...
