Hi,

I am cross compiling python 2.4 for powerpc-860.
Steps I followed are :
$ patch -p3 < ./python-patch
$ ./configure --host=powerpc-860-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu
$ make

Error found is listed below:

ar cr libpython2.4.a Modules/config.o Modules/getpath.o Modules/main.o Modules/gcmodule.o
ar: Modules/config.o: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [libpython2.4.a] Error 1

Though the file is existing in the directory listing.
Can you suggest any reason why this error occurs?

Thanks in advance,
Yegnesh
