When I try to build and install python from source It configures and
makes fine but upon 'make install' I always get to this
point:
Listing /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax ...
Compiling /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax/__init__.py ...
Compiling /usr/local/lib/python2.5/xml/sax/_exceptions.py ...

make: *** [libinstall] Error 1
I am currently trying to install 2.5.1. I get the error no matter what the
version is. Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this?
I have gone through the config.log and found no errors concerning
zipfile.py or zipfile or zip. I am thinking the error is the next command
after the zipfile.py installation because I can go into
/usr/local/lib/python2.5 and zipfile.py is installed.
Any help much appreciated.
I saw this (and reported this issue in SF's tracker) at some time around
2.2/2.3 (just cann't recall). I don't know what causes this problem
exactly, but in my case the installation succeeded if I removed prevoius
python's library directory (/usr/lib/python2.x or
/usr/local/lib/python2.x). The module that stopped installation was
exactly the same.
