I've been able to successfully finish building python 3.7.0 but one last optional module keeps slipping through the net! _dbm
What ubuntu or debian package is required for this?
The necessary bits to build these optional modules were not found:
_dbm
I've been able to include in the build _gdbm but not _dbm, why?
I have installed libgdbm-dev (which solved _gdbm) but can't definitively find any other *dbm-dev package that is relevant for _dbm.
I would really appreciate a hand if anyone knows what I'm missing!
Environment:
- Ubuntu 18.04
- gcc8.2
- python3.7.0 source
- using configure --enable-optimizations --with-lto

I was able to satisfy the dbm requirement via this module
sudo apt install libgdbm-compat-dev
It looks like the older "dbm" files are moved to "gbdm-compat" package.
