I'm trying to compile Zope 2.5 on a system with Python 2.2. The command "python w_pcgi.py" ends with this error: Compiling extensions in lib/python cp /usr/local/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in . cp: cannot stat `/usr/local/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in': No such file or directory

In searching the Zope mailing list archives, an earlier poster suggested using a Makefile.pre.in from Python 2.1. I got Python 2.1.2, untar'ed it, and "ln -s /tmp/Python-2.1.2/Makefile.pre.in /usr/local/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in" The results were only slightly different:

Compiling extensions in lib/python cp /usr/local/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in . make -f Makefile.pre.in boot PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python make: *** No rule to make target `boot'. Stop.

The earlier poster suggested that this be a FAQ; I concur. Can anyone help me get beyond this point?

Thanks in advance for your help.
