Christian,

I received this email from Nori. It appears that python-config may not exist
on Python2.4 which happens to be the version on CentOS 5 and RHEL 5.

2.4 is pretty widespread version of python. I'd say this may be an actual
problem for us.

Hi, Michael.

address@hidden/Desktop/work/gnubg/git% cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.2 (Final)
address@hidden/Desktop/work/gnubg/git% rpm -qf /usr/bin/python
python-2.4.3-21.el5

address@hidden/Desktop/work/gnubg/git% yum provides /usr/bin/python-config

So, "Luke Use the source."
in short, python 2.4 DO NOT have python-config.

address@hidden/Desktop/work/python/2.5% grep python-config Makefile
        -rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR)/python-config
        (cd $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR); $(LN) -s python$(VERSION)-config
python-config)
        sed -e "s,@EXENAME@,$(BINDIR)/python$(VERSION)$(EXE)," <
$(srcdir)/Misc/python-config.in >python-config
        $(INSTALL_SCRIPT) python-config
$(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR)/python$(VERSION)-config
        rm python-config
# install (which includes python-config) happy.

address@hidden/Desktop/work/python/2.4% grep python-config Makefile
address@hidden/Desktop/work/python/2.4%

address@hidden/Desktop/work/python/2.6% grep python-config Makefile
        -rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR)/python-config
        (cd $(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR); $(LN) -s python$(VERSION)-config
python-config)
        sed -e "s,@EXENAME@,$(BINDIR)/python$(VERSION)$(EXE)," <
$(srcdir)/Misc/python-config.in >python-config
        $(INSTALL_SCRIPT) python-config
$(DESTDIR)$(BINDIR)/python$(VERSION)-config
        rm python-config
# install (which includes python-config) happy.
