How do i recompile python 3.4.7 when using pyenv to handle the weird mod_wsgi 64 bit issue?

[Grumblepants]

If i have pyenv and python and i am getting the mod_wsgi issue here

https://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/InstallationIssues#Mixing_32_Bit_And_64_Bit_Packages

How exactly do i recompile python?

I don't really know what a pyenv is, just that whatever tutorial i followed said it was utterly essential to use... so now i am using it, how do i recompile with the flag?

If this is the same as:

Then instead of:

PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--enable-unicode=ucs4 --enable-shared"
pyenv uninstall 3.4.1
pyenv install 3.4.1

try:

PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--enable-unicode=ucs4 --enable-shared"
export PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS
pyenv uninstall 3.4.1
pyenv install 3.4.1

That is, you would normally need to export the environment variable.

If you are getting something like:

WARNING: The Python bz2 extension was not compiled. Missing the bzip2 lib?
WARNING : The Python readline extension was not compiled. Missing the GNU readline lib?
Installed Python-3.4.1 to /root/.pyenv/versions/3.4.1

You are missing dev packages of various systems libraries and so header files needed to compile those modules are missing and so they cannot be built.
