[Python-Dev] Compiling Free Cad on Rhel5

2010-07-28 Thread Vikas Mahajan
Hello to all..Today I was trying to install FreeCAD 0.10 from its source
code. I am using RHEL5. I have firstly installed python2.6.5 from source and
also tested it. Python is working fine. But when I try to compile FreeCAD
0.10, I got following configure error :

#./configure --with-python-include=/usr/local/include/python2.6
--with-python-lib=/usr/local/lib/python2.6

-
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.5... python
checking for python... /usr/local/bin/python
checking for python version... 2.6
checking for python platform... linux2
checking for python script directory...

checking Python.h presence... yes
checking for Python.h... yes
checking for libpython2.6... no
configure: error:
 Cannot find Python2.6 devel files.

I also searched internet for python-devel source code but was unable to find
any such pacage. Please help me to resolve this python error.

Thanks

Sorry for posting here. I am new baby to python so I don't know where
to post. I will remember this and will not post irrelevant topics
here.

Thanks a lot for your help. Your solution helped me a lot.
