</blockquote><div></div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I had this problem across two platforms: Ubuntu as a guest VM on my computer and a fresh CentOS EC2 instance, across two versions (git checkout of v1.2 and v1.4), and across three versions of Python. Here were my efforts:</div>

<div><br></div><div>Ubuntu 14.04</div><div>------------------</div><div>[x] FS v1.2 - Python 2.7.5 [stock]</div><div>[x] FS v1.4 - Python 2.7.5 [stock]</div><div>[x] FS v1.4 -Python 3.3.2 [installed from source]</div><div>

<br></div><div>CentOS 6.5</div><div>----------------</div><div>[x] FS v1.4 - Python 2.6.6 [stock]</div><div>[+] FS v1.4 - Python 2.7.6 [installed from source]</div><div>[x] FS v1.4 - Python 3.3.3 [installed from source]</div>

<div><br></div><div>For five out of my six configurations attempts (five permutations listed above failed [x], one succeed [√]). Why was pythonX.Y unusable? What versions of Python are supported?</div><div><br></div></div>

<div>I installed Python from source on CentOS, using the instructions posted by Digital Ocean, here: <a href="https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-python-2-7-6-and-3-3-3-on-centos-6-4" target="_blank">https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-python-2-7-6-and-3-3-3-on-centos-6-4</a></div>

<div>The only change I made was to add the compilation flag “—enable-shared” during configure of the Python which led to a successful installation. That however, was almost certainly a different bug.</div><div><br></div>
