Hello,<br><br><br>I'm back with this 3 day 'make' session with a new error.<br><br>Thanks to the tip from Klaus, I edited the freetype.cfg file<br>and changed the *CURRENTLY* non working url from:<br><br><i>url = <a href="http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/freetype-2.4.3.tar.gz">http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/freetype-2.4.3.tar.gz</a><br>
md5sum = 649dd3c558278ae1d79a4e8e502c13e4</i><br><br>to this:<br><br><i>url = <a href="http://nongnu.ask.apache.com/freetype/freetype-2.4.3.tar.gz">http://nongnu.ask.apache.com/freetype/freetype-2.4.3.tar.gz</a></i><br><br>
I then run the 'make' command again and now receive this message:<br><br><i>/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py, line 500, in create_connection for res in getaddrinfo(host, port, ) SOCK_STREAM):<br>IOError: [Errno socket error] [error -2] name or service not known</i><br>
<br>So i then nano the file <i>/usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py, </i>then scroll down to line 500 and see this:<br><br><i>msg = "getaddrinfo returns an empty list"<br>host, port = address<br>for res in getaddrinfo(host, port, 0, SOCK_STREAM):<br>
af, socktype, proto, canonname, sa = res<br>sock = None</i><br><br>Am i to input my ip address & a port # for the above line <i>host, port = address</i>?<br><br>I even changed <i>sock = None</i> to <i>sock = socket</i>, then ran make and got the same error:<br>
<br><i>usr/lib/python2.6/socket.py, line 500, in create_connection for res in getaddrinfo(host, port, ) SOCK_STREAM):IOError: [Errno socket error] [error -2] name or service not known<br></i><br>What am I doing wrong here?<br>
<br>Sincerely,<br><br><br>Martin<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
