[egenix-users] compiling egenix-mx-experimental-0.8.0 on Solaris 8

[Page, Bill]

Hello,

I am trying to compile and install mxTidy so that I
can then install Epoz 0.7.1 for use under Plone.
I am using

  gcc version 3.2.2

on Solaris 8.

The egenix-mx-base-2.0.5 package installs with
no problem using

  cd egenix-mx-base-2.0.5
  python setup.py install

but

  cd egenix-mx-experimental-0.8.0
  python setup.py install

Gives the following error:

building extension "mx.Number.mxNumber.mxNumber" (required)

...

Apparently I am missing (or the include path is incorrect)
for gmp.h (part of the gnu math package?).

Is this a prerequisit for mxTidy? Could there be anything
else I am missing?

Thanks.
