I was wondering why I could successfully run configure by hand, but when creating a Debian package got similar errors to those given. Debian packages are created in a pseudo root environment so file ownership can be set appropriately (among other reasons). Additionally, the autobuilders do not run from an X window. This all worked before so why should it stop working now? (note that I just upgraded to python 2.3) -- James (Jay) Treacy tr...@de... |
