Fix the python m4 file to query python (1.01 KB, patch)
2007-02-06 12:11 UTC, Roy Marples 		none Details | Review

Description Roy Marples 2007-02-06 12:09:56 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
pyorbit assumes that it only needs to link to python - this is not correct and causes this error on Gentoo/FreeBSD

checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.4... python
checking for python... /usr/bin/python
checking for python version... 2.4
checking for python platform... freebsd6
checking for python script directory... ${prefix}/lib/python2.4/site-packages
checking for python extension module directory... ${exec_prefix}/lib/python2.4/site-packages
checking for headers required to compile python extensions... found
checking for libraries required to compile python extensions... not found
configure: error: could not find Python headers
