David Reiss updated THRIFT-304:
-------------------------------

    Description: Thrift doesn't require any compiled Python modules.  If the Python development headers are not present, we should just install the pure Python library.  (was: I just downloaded the latest thrift source, and followed the README to get all the prerequisites....

I'm running on ubuntu-8.10..

It apparently requires the python dev package (It was complaining about missing the header file 'Python.h')...

So, installing the ubuntu package 'python2.5-dev' solved the problem.

The README, and perhaps also the wiki page, should be updated to mention this dependency....

       Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
        Summary: Building the Python library requires development headers  (was: Building on Ubuntu requires optional python2.5-dev package.....)
