python26 fails to build on Snow Leopard

[jakub.moskal@…]

I know this has been mentioned before, but I still can't seem to find a solution to my problem. I removed /opt, installed 1.8.1 today and issued just one command "sudo port install python26", after successfully installing all prerequisites, building fails:

Do you have anything in /usr/local/include?

$ ls /usr/local/include

(Sounds like #21571 but I don't see e2fsprogs port installed).

[tobypeterson]

Yeah, e2fsprogs was my theory... hmm

By the way, my /usr/local/ includes a lot of junk, is there any way to clean it up and not worry about removing some important library?

[blb@…]

I note there is a uuid listing there, which would still implicate e2fsprogs but not the MacPorts' one (which was fixed in r58211).

I can't really answer that since whatever is in /usr/local would have importance to you (since MacPorts will install to /opt/local, not /usr/local). Having various bits in /usr/local does, as you see, get in the way of MacPorts' success, so I'd suggest at the very least move /usr/local aside, doing your port installs, then put /usr/local back. Also, you'd need to do that anytime you want to use port.

Finally, if you do move /usr/local aside (or clean it out), be sure to clean python26 before installing again (via sudo port clean --work python26).
