[gentoo-user] Failed to emerge dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r4

[Moritz Schlarb <mail@moritz-schlarb.de>]

Hi at all!

For using Google App Engine, I wanted to emerge Python 2.5, so I did
emerge -av =dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r4
and everything went fine, until:
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 pyconfig.h
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r4/image//usr/include/python2.5/pyconfig.h
emake failed
 * ERROR: dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r4 failed (install phase):
 *   emake altinstall maninstall failed
 *
 * Call stack:
 *     ebuild.sh, line  56:  Called src_install
 *   environment, line 5753:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *       emake DESTDIR="${D}" altinstall maninstall || die "emake
altinstall maninstall failed";

Doesn't make much sense to me, failing at installing to
python2.5-specific directories... I would investigate further, but I
don't know how to make portage tell me more about the error that occured!
But I'm eager to learn, would be great if someone could tell me where to
look for debugging infos.

I've uploaded:
complete build log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/t47wn56vtynlh3y/build.log
ebuild environment file:

Looking forward to some instructions...
