Hi! Attached a mailing with the support-list at digital creations. Looks like they have no idea what's happening. Any one around here any idea? Recap on the situation: it looks like there is a circular dependency in the Sybase-DA Makefile.pre.in: Makefile.pre.in creates Makefile.pre, but that needs sedfile and that needs Makefile which is the goal of the whole process and therefore can't exist at this moment. Python-dev and Sybase dev-libs are installed (FreeTDS for the Sybase dev-libs, but I have the original libs, too). bye, Georg

Georg,
You're probably missing your Sybase and/or Python development libraries on the machine you're trying to build this on. The setup instructions do work if you've got the right stuff installed.
Make sure you've got both installed, make sure you're building Makefile.pre.in with the right Python instance (via the PYTHON= directive as explained in the directions).
If you have further questions, please direct them to the main zope mailing list at zope@zope.org.
Good luck!
- Chris

Hi!
When I try to make the Sybase DA, there is a circular reference in the Makefile.pre.in:
It tries to build the Makefile.pre from Makefile.pre.in, but needs the sedscript for this. But the sedscripts depends on Makefile, that is the original stuff that needs to be built (and so is not there). Result: no way to create the DA with this Makefile.pre.in.
