[Zope-DB] Error compiling DCOracle2 -- NOT the @DEFS@ error

[Thorsten Henrici]

Hello list,

I'm desperately trying to compile the DCOracle2 but I just can't get it
to work.

System:
Linux SuSE 9.0
python-2.3-49
gcc-3.3.1-24
Oracle 10g

The output from the compile run is as follows:

-- BEGIN --

As far as I can see the problem might be related to python 2.3. If that
could be confirmed I will try it with a different python version.

Thanks and Regards
