[Visualpython-users] "you do not have the header files required for building C/C++ extensions "

From: Xunchi C. <che...@gm...> - 2010-01-09 04:06:20

Attachments: config.log

Dear Sir/Madam,

When configuring visual-5.13_release.tar.bz2 on my UBUNTU 9.10, an
error occurred and I don't know what to do. Can you help?


configure: error: A suitable python interpreter was found, but you do not
have the header files required for building C/C++ extensions to python, or
another problem was encoutered when compiling a program that uses Python.h.


Thank you very much!

Hi,

have you check and install all the required package(s) needed for the
compilation, notably lots of "-dev" packages? Or you can just simply install
the python-visual package from your synaptic and update your boost
libraries. Details at

My guess is that you don't have the "developer" versions of some of the
libraries, possibly including some components of Python itself. In
Linus there are typically two different versions of libraries needed by
programs. The simple version is adequate for running programs built by
someone else, but to build a program yourself you need the "dev"
versions to be installed, which includes the include files (.h or .hpp)
that are needed in the compilation phase.<br>
