[Nexus-developers] 4.0rc2

[Akeroyd, FA (Freddie)]

Mark,

--with-python should be passed the name of the python interpreter itself
(not a directory) and PYTHONROOT is determined by doing a "which" on
this to get the directory and then adding "..". So

./configure --with-python=/usr/bin/python

Should give

  PYTHONROOT=/usr/bin/..

And then the include path in CFLAGS should then get set to

  /usr/bin/../include/python$(PYTHON_VERSION)

Do you pass a relative path to --with-python ? If so, can you try using
an absolute path and see if that works.

Regards,

Freddie

Ooops, I missed the branching thing. And I already wondered why I did 
not see updates when I tries to run svn update
in the trunk. But even with 4.0 I get the problem with NXsummary. The 
memory leaks seems to be gone. And python
does not work either. But I know a little more about this. New is that I

get a bogus PYTHONROOT pointing to ../../include
which is not quite right. I then looked where PYTHONROOT was used and 
found it in the libnxpython_la_CFLAGS in
 Makefile.am. I then proceeded to change that to PYTHON which happens to

have an accepatable value. But this failed
as well because PYTHON_VERSION is not defined and it still could not 
find its header file. I assume that is dynamically
tested and generated by the configure script.
