   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.
