Description Geert Janssens 2018-01-12 12:39:35 UTC 
While helping a user on IRC, he got the following error:
06:21:57 <Totalkrill> CMake Error at common/test-core/CMakeLists.txt:39 (FILE):
06:21:57 <Totalkrill> FILE COPY cannot find
06:21:57 <Totalkrill> "/home/krille/projects/gnucash/common/test-core/unittest_support.py".

(https://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2018/01/12.html#T06:21:57)

The full IRC conversation starts here:
https://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2018/01/12.html#T04:49:06

Adding "-DWITH_PYTHON=ON" gets past this error (although in the conversation the user ran into another issue, which will be reported in a second bug).
Comment 1 Geert Janssens 2018-02-03 14:24:07 UTC 
I can no longer reproduce this issue today with current unstable
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/eb1400c44bf8c8f

I assume the fixes for make dist solved this.

Should this still happen, feel free to reopen this bug.
