[BioPython] Problems with MMCIFlex module

[Matias Saavedra]

Thanks for taking care of my problem.

At this moment i still cant install biopython... but now i'm trying to 
install biopython-1.40b using the .tar files.

when i type the installing commands python setup.py install, y receive the 
following message:

[Macintosh:~/biopython-1.40b] mato% python setup.py install
running install
*** mxTextTools *** is either not installed or out of date.

This package is required for many Biopython features.  Please install
it before you install Biopython.
You can find mxTextTools at 
http://www.egenix.com/files/python/eGenix-mx-Extensions.html.

So i went to the egenix webpage in order to get de mxtexttools that are 
necessary to biopython. And unfortunelly, i cant install the egenix base 
package, because i receive the following message when i try to build it:

[Macintosh:~/egenix-mx-base-2.0.6] mato% python setup.py build

So i0m stucked at this level... as i cant install mxTextTools i cant install 
biopython neither.
The latter problem seems to be related to GCC or C compilers, but i dont 
understand it very well.

Can you help me with that?

Thanks a lot
