[gcompris-devel] The python plugin...

[Bruno Coudoin]

Sory for the late answer.
I tried to install it on my redhat 8.0 but it does not compile the
plugin python as expexted.
Don't know why yet, I still have some configure and compile issue.
Other than this, I appreciate what you did, and it will be commited as
soon as I can make it work.

BTW, do you want a cvs account for gnome in order to commit your changes
yourself ?

Bruno.
