I am trying to build and compile python3.4 from a source tarball on various RHEL servers (they are all supposed to be the same model of server). I have checked md5sum and they are all the same as the one on the Python website.
However, on some servers, when I compile python3.4 (./configure -> make -> make install), the server goes into an infinite loop during the "make" step. It keeps "checking for" various elements.
How can I fix this?
Red Hat Software Collections is a relatively new offering to make fresh versions of Python, Ruby, etc. available for RHEL 6 and 7. They are included with most RHEL subscriptions and they install along side the original/base versions that are part of RHEL. Python 3.4 is among the list.
