When emerging python-2.6.5-r2, the build fails; I believe it has something to do with the dbm module, though the build process continues for a few lines after the dbm module failed, so it's possible that's just a red herring. Here's the end of the emerge process: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -L. -fno-strict-aliasing -mtune=prescott -O2 -pipe -fwrapv -DNDEB UG -I. -IInclude -I./Include build/temp.linux-i686-2.6/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctype s/_ctypes.o build/temp.linux-i686-2.6/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctypes/callbacks.o bui ld/temp.linux-i686-2.6/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctypes/callproc.o build/temp.linux-i6 86-2.6/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctypes/stgdict.o build/temp.linux-i686-2.6/var/tmp/po rtage/dev-lang/python-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctypes/cfield.o build/temp.linux-i686-2.6/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/pyt hon-2.6.5-r2/work/Python-2.6.5/Modules/_ctypes/malloc_closure.o -L/usr/local/lib -L. -lffi -lpython2.6 -o build/lib.linux-i686-2 .6/_ctypes.so Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules: bsddb185 sunaudiodev To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.
