  Hello,
   Iam trying to compile Python 2.4.1 on Tru64 OS version
   V5.1A. The C- Compiler version is
   $cc -V
Compaq C V6.4-014 on Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1A (Rev. 1885)
Compiler Driver V6.4-215 (sys) cc Driver

   C++ version is
   
   $cxx -V
Compaq C++ V6.5-014 for Compaq Tru64 UNIX V5.1A (Rev. 1885)
Compiler Driver V6.5-014 (cxx) cxx Driver

   The user wants to have following program installed on the machine.
    RasMol_2.7.2.1.1, ScientificPython-2.4.9, Numeric-23.8.
  Has any one installed the latest version of Python on Tru64?
  Can I use a previous version of Python program with the above
  mentioned SW? The error I get with the Python compilation is

   ar cr libpython2.4.a Modules/config.o Modules/getpath.o Modules/main.o
Modules/gcmodule.o
ar cr libpython2.4.a Modules/threadmodule.o Modules/signalmodule.o
Modules/posixmodule.o Modules/errnomodule.o Modules/_sre.o
Modules/_codecsmodule.o Modules/zipimport.o Modules/symtablemodule.o
Modules/xxsubtype.o
ranlib libpython2.4.a
 c++ -o python Modules/python.o libpython2.4.a -lrt -lm
/usr/bin/ld:
Unresolved:
__pthread_self
pthread_attr_setscope
pthread_attr_init
pthread_attr_destroy
__pthread_create
__pthread_detach
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
*** Exit 1
Stop.

    Whether I need the latest version of Pyhton ofr the previous programs?

   Any advice will be very much appreciated. I will put the correct answer
   in the mailing list.

  With regards,
    Kumar
