Hi I'm with some troubles to connect a freshly installed Zope 2.2.1 on a Conectiva Linux 5.0 (glibc-2.1.2, the rest is the same as Red Hat 6.x) to a PostgreSQL 7.0.2 database. The ZPyGreSQLDA (http://www.zope.org/Members/reedstrm/ZPyGreSQLDA-rjr) "is broken". I tried to get the PoPyDA working, but cannot compile the PoPy module (it complains about libcrypt - that is already installed). Can someone point's me to a useful documentation about what is needed to get PoPy compiled, or another way to connect a Zope 2.2.1 to a PostgreSQL database. Trying to compile PoPy 1.3.6: [root@bit PoPy-1.3.6]# ./configure loading cache ./config.cache checking for python... /usr/bin/python checking python version... 1.5 checking python installation prefix... /usr checking python installation exec_prefix... /usr checking definitions in Python library makefile... done checking location of python library... $(prefix)/lib/python1.5/site-packages checking location of python shared modules... $(exec_prefix)/lib/python1.5/site-packages checking for main in -lcrypt... no Warning: next test can fail because of a missing libcrypt checking for PQconnectStart in -lpq... no configure: error: can't build without PostgreSQL libraries Do we have a crypt library somewhere?
