[gcompris-devel] gcompris 3.1(libpython)

[Rob van Dam]

Hello,

Thanks for the reaction. Here is some more information:

* libpython2.2.a does exist and is located in /usr/lib/python2.2/config

* I have a LFS system. Python is therefore manually installed, according
to the LFS-book 

http://beyond.linuxfromscratch.org/view/cvs/general/Python.html

* I have included the relevant part from config.log below

Thanks!

Rob van Dam

Hi,

Since I'm the writer of the python plugin I'll just reply to this
point...

It seems that there's no static python library installed with your
distribution (or you need to install a package ?)

To help you I will ask you three things:
- Check that a file named libpython* exists... probably this file will
be located in the /usr/lib/python2.2/config directory and its full name
will be something like libpython2.2.a
- Check what's wrong in the config.log file (created after having run
cthe configure script). If you don't know what to do with this file,
just send it to me (not to the entire list)
- Send us some more infos like what's your distribution, which version,
do you installed python manually or is it a package ...

Hope we'll find a solution...
