Hi all. Im having a hard time trying to compile the plpython package.
This is the error make gives me:

gherzig@vdb:/usr/local/src/postgresql-8.2.5/src/pl/plpython> make
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline

/usr/lib/python2.5/config/libpython2.5.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libplpython.so.0.0] Error 1


This runs on OpenSuse 10.3.
python 2.5
postgres 8.2.5 ( and 8.3.0)

Any clues?
Thanks!

Gerardo
