next problem:

i did copy the python source archve as instructed:
cp python/Python-2.7.9.tar.xz ipfire-2.x/cache/

and changed
vim ~/ipfire/ipfire-2.x/lfs/python
   on line 27 change
     VER        = 2.7.3
   to
     VER        = 2.7.9

but running
./make.sh toolchain

produces the following error
