install python 2.4.3 in ubuntu 8.10 March 15, 2009

I have got error at first when i tried to install python 2.4.3 in ubuntu 8.10

error is something like this:

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./LICENSE /usr/local/lib/python2.4/LICENSE.txt
PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.4   \
./python -Wi -tt /usr/local/lib/python2.4/compileall.py \
-d /usr/local/lib/python2.4 -f \
-x ‘badsyntax|site-packages’ /usr/local/lib/python2.4
*** buffer overflow detected ***: ./python terminated
then i searched the net for solution i got this

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-defaults/+bug/286334

and the solution isgo inside the python 2.4.3 directory

$ ./configure CC=gcc-4.2 # works
$ ./configure OPT=”-g -O0″ # works

then

$ make

$sudo make install

then the python 2.4.3 will be installed

I need that version of python to run the bootstrap.py of plone svn

now I am happy that the buildout is running ..

Thanks
