Q:

GAE " no attribute 'HTTPSHandler' " dev_appserver.py

I am trying to use the google appengine python SKD from my ubuntu lucid. I have already compiled python2.5. But when I execute any "dev_appserver.py" command with it I get the following error:
 Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "dev_appserver.py", line 69, in <module>
    run_file(__file__, globals())
  File "dev_appserver.py", line 65, in run_file

    class FancyHTTPSHandler(urllib2.HTTPSHandler):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTTPSHandler'

I have checked the urllib2 moduls of python2.6 and python2.5 but there was no difference in the models defination and HTTPSHandelr is there in python2.5 too. So I guess it is some other sort of error.
I tried to run with the default python2.6 too but then I get the following error:

It works well in windows and even under wine.
Update
Problem with python2.6 solved.
I had configured my apache server for a django deployment on the 8080 and 80 port some time earlier.
But there is still same error with python2.5 isntallation.

A:

Solved the issue...just needed to build all dependencies of python using: 

apt-get build-dep python

python compiles with no error even when all the dependencies are not installed. It just skips the modules which require them and builds python.
