I downloaded Python to my Solaris 8 box, SPARC based server, and followed the directions. Configure fails; it can't find Modules/Setup.config.in. I touch the file, then it fails on another file. I touch that file, and 3 or 4 attempts later, configure completes, but it makes no Makefile.
The references I find to the Modules directory in the README file do not give me a clue as to how to configure Python in such as way as to bypass its dependency on the Modules, even though it says it no longer requires those Modules.
