[Tinyos-help] Can't Blink with "make micaz sim"

[Carlos Perez]

Hi,

I'm having the same problem with my python libraries. I tried the
"configure;make" with Python 2.5 and changed my sim-cygwin.extra and
sim.extra but had no luck. Now it's complaining about "Python.h: No such
file or directory". Can you give me some insight into how exactly do I make
it find Python.h? What else must I point sim-cygwin.extra to?
