Install Python2.5 (including tkinter)

    These days, I was busy learning Python, I feel it simple and funny.
My system is a FC6, the default Python is of version 2.4, I wanted to update it to the newest 2.5.
    Python depends on Tcl/Tk, so I first install them. There will be two libraries: libtk8.5.so and libtcl8.5.so, they are both the newest version.
    Then install Python, I configured it by these options:
./configure --prefix=/apps --with-tk --with-tcl-library=/apps/lib --with-tcl-include=/apps/include --with-tk-library=/apps/lib --with-tk-include=/apps/include

    While making, there appears an error:

*** WARNING: renaming "_tkinter" since importing it failed: libtk8.5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    I was very confused, because I had specified the location of tk library, while can't the lib be found.
    This message appeared after a "gcc" command like this:

building '_tkinter' extension

    So at first I was very comfirmed that this error was given out by the gcc compiler, and in my experience "No such file or directory" was always a gcc's "product".

    In several hours I didn't know why, I couldn't find any error in Makefile and setup.py. Finally I compiled these two files and made them into .so lib one by one in shell. No problem!
    Then I thought the reason was that the error message is not given by gcc but some other part of the install script, the script didn't know I had installed tk and tcl in my personalised directory /apps/lib, so it couldn't find the libs. But the script should support the default path /usr/lib, because this is the most common used path, the script has no reason missing it. So I copy libtk8.5.so and libtcl8.5.so to /usr/lib, and made. Making passed successfully.

THE REASON IS THAT THE INSTALLATIOIN SCRIPT CAN'T SEARCH LIB PATH OTHER THAN /usr/lib , OR I DIDN'T SPECIFY THE CORRECT LIB PATH .
