copied!<p>Here is how I resolved pythong 2.6.5 installation on ubuntu 12.10:</p> <p>1.) I tried to install the following libraries (some were already on the system):</p> <pre><code>apt-get install libreadline-dev apt-get install libssl-dev (already installed) apt-get install libbz2-dev (already installed) apt-get install build-essential (already installed) apt-get install sqlite3 apt-get install tk-dev apt-get install libsqlite3-dev apt-get install libc6-dev (already installed) apt-get install libgdbm-dev apt-get install libncurses-dev </code></pre> <p>2.) Issue with bz2 module not building: </p> <p>a.) I downloaded bz2 source from <a href="http://www.bzip.org/downloads.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.bzip.org/downloads.html</a>. b.) Modified Makefile and changed <code>cc=gcc</code> to 'cc=gcc -fPIC` following <a href="http://matrafox.info/problem-with-ffmpeg-usrlocalliblibbz2-a-could-not-read-symbols-bad-value.html" rel="nofollow">this post</a>. c.) Executed make and make install. d.) Tested bz2 with the following code from command line: python -c "import bz2; print bz2.<strong>doc</strong>"</p> <p>3.) Issue with _ssl module not building:</p> <p>a.) Fixed ssl by removing ssl v2 from python source. Followed instructions <a href="http://blog.schmichael.com/2012/05/29/building-python-2-6-8-on-ubuntu-12-04/" rel="nofollow">in this blog by Michael Schurter</a>. It worked like a charm.</p> <p>4.) At this point I installed Python 2.6.5 using <code>make altinstall</code>, as to not overwrite the existing python. I pointed /usr/bin/python to my new python installation. Still a couple of things were missing.</p> <p>5.) Added ez_setup: curl -O <a href="https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py" rel="nofollow">https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py</a> python ez_setup.py</p> <p>6.) Added pip: easy_install -U pip</p> <p>7.) Installed setuptools: pip install setuptools</p> <p>At this point it looks like it's all working!</p>
