[gcompris-devel] gcompris 3.1(libpython)

[Olivier Samyn]

Let me know you are using a LFS system... :)

Just like mine... So I'll quickly find the solution...

If you read the config.log you'll see it's a linking problem because the math library is not passed to the command.

It seems this is a "bug" coming with own compiled python version. 

To solve it, just modify the /usr/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile

find the line containing LOCALMODLIBS= ... and add -lm
