Hm, I quickly tried with a self-compiled Python 2.5.6 from the upstream tarball and it compiled on my Linux machine. I see that PyObject_SelfIter is defined here: http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/b48e1b48e670/Include/object.h#l407 I'll try to dig around to see what can be causing that... Cheers, Jan

Seems that PyObject_GenericGetIter has been renamed to PyObject_SelfIter at some point: http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/fd5ef7003469 I'm trying to muster whatever mercurial-foo I have to check if there's been a 2.5 version tagged without that patch...

So no, the renaming happened on Mar 17 2003 and 2.5 was tagged on Sep 18 2006. The source tarball for 2.5 contains PyObject_SelfIter. Both fennec and mastodon build OK with Python 2.5. Is it possible that narwhal's Python installation is in some way broken?
