I pointed out that sys/types.h is already included in a header file (curses.priv.h) which is included before sys/select.h, but saw no further comment. -- Thomas E.

Nothing OS/2 specific. But I'm sure Roland Schmalenberg and Michael Oehlhoff will try to help you if you ask them directly.

In the meantime I've got a little further with the TYPO3 3.8.0 Install Tool, but get an error when creating a new database. Is there any place I can look to see what the nature of this error is?

The LIB_DIR variable does, as I recall, get used to set the default if the FIXED_PYHOME variable is defined. Otherwise, the Python interpreter figures out the python library home directory by other means (in the absence of a PYTHONHOME environment variable). The default Unix install puts the executables in /usr/local/bin (as python and python.), and the library is installed in /usr/local/python. (ie for 2.4.2, this would be /usr/local/lib/python2.4). As far as trying a Unix library install goes, Makefile generated by configure will have the necessary code in it to copy the library. A python interpreter built (with EMX) from the configure'ed Makefile should run, but is likely to be missing some functionality, and many/all of the standard extension modules will not get built unless the dependencies are found. It is quite likely that Knut's latest toolchain can be used to build a fairly viable interpreter, with the possible exception of threads and dynamic loading of extension modules. If the standard Unix directories noted above are what you want, I can try and get a more complete Makefile included for 2.5. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."
