Hi, using Python 2.4.3 installed via package on a Mac G4 with OS X 10.4.7. I'm trying to compile zope 2.9.4 and getting the following error trace in the terminal window: AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:629: error: initializer element is not constant AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:629: error: (near initialization for 'imPermissionRoleType.tp_setattro') AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: initializer element is not constant AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: (near initialization for 'dtml_methods[1].ml_name') AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: initializer element is not constant AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: (near initialization for 'dtml_methods[1].ml_meth') AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: initializer element is not constant AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2215: error: (near initialization for 'dtml_methods[1]') AccessControl/cAccessControl.c: In function 'initcAccessControl': AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2229: error: initializer element is not constant AccessControl/cAccessControl.c:2229: error: (near initialization for 'RestrictedDTMLMixinType.ob_type') lipo: can't figure out the architecture type of: /var/tmp//ccLGX4ik.out error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 255 make: *** [build] Error 1 There's a bunch more of the same AccessContral/cAccessControl.c: error messages above those I copied here, but they didn't seem to germane to the problem. Any ideas what throws this error? Is this possibly a problem with a gcc for the g4 architecture vs. one for the new i386 architecture? Any suggestions most welcome!
