In that it sounds like you've had Zope running properly on BSDI 3, do you have any insights to share to get it to build and install on BSDI 3?
Ah, no! I was cruising the list archives and saw your messages. I stupidly assumed from the fact that there was a FAQ relating to BSDI that there were a number of people running it using 3.0, but of course it doesn't *say* that <grin>. I haven't had any problems with my Python. I didn't run a make test, but I didn't get any of those number related error messages you mentioned. I use Python extensively for sysadmin scripting, and it has been working fine (modulo a little popen hang problem I ran into in upgrading to 1.5.2). I don't think I tried to install 1.5.2 on a 3.0 system, though; all my boxes were at 4.0 before I started the upgrade from 1.4. I *do* have Zope running fine on a FreeBSD 3.1 box. Compiled, installed, and ran with no problems. If it weren't that I'm afraid of breaking customer CGI scripts, I'd be tempted to just upgrade the BSDI box to FreeBSD. So how did you make that -rdynamic change, and are you sure it actually "took" during the compile process? --RDM
