Hi Philip, Appreciate your response. I finally was able to compile a new python. However; the gmake test did not run to completion although the compile did complete successfully except for the audio parts, which I expected since my system does not seem to support the typical audio stuff. After installing the new python I tried to compile gobject-introspection-1.42 again. This time I just got the following: CCLD libcmph.la CCLD libgirepository-gthash.la CCLD libgirepository-1.0.la Makefile:1640: recipe for target 'libgirepository-1.0.la' failed gmake[2]: Leaving directory '/home/surfer/DownLoadLFNs/HTML/NEWS/BuildFirefox/DONE/gobject-introspection-1.42.0' Makefile:2702: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/home/surfer/DownLoadLFNs/HTML/NEWS/BuildFirefox/DONE/gobject-introspection-1.42.0' Makefile:1480: recipe for target 'all' failed I have no idea what the problem is this time either. There does not seem to be any other error comments or hints as to what might be going wrong. Appreciate any suggestions. Bye, Dwight PROBLEM: During the gmake of gobject-introspection-1.42.0/2/3 I got the following message before the gmake stopped.

Be aware, you may well have further problems with running GNOME on AIX. I don’t think anyone’s been maintaining support for it because none of the developers use AIX.
