Installed it the other way and found out the problem - missing python3
headers.
Now installed but without any docs - seems .pyc files missing.
My system has two versions of python installed 2.7 fully (ish) and 3.4 named
as
python3.4 or python3.4m .
Next is to read your post regarding. The idea is to back up the entire Mageia
/ directory but without the contents of /mnt, /proc, /dev etc.
