[Gramps-devel] conftest.py

[stuporglue <stu...@gm...>]

As I try to compile gramps on OSX, I'm getting stuck at ./configure. 
It can't find any of the python bindings (for gnome-python2, 
gnome-python2-gconf,  gnome-python2-canvas,  gnome-python2-vfs,
pygtk2-libglade). It seems that their presence is determined by a
program conftest.py. Is this right?

If that's the case, I don't have conftest.py anywhere on my machine. 

If I comment out all the tests for those bindings, it wil configure
correctly, but make dies with some un-defined symbols:

ld: warning suggest use of -bind_at_load, as lazy binding may result
in errors or different symbols being used
symbol _locale_charset used from dynamic library
/sw/lib/libiconv.dylib(localcharset.o) not from earlier dynamic
library /sw/lib/libintl.1.dylib(localcharset.lo)
ld: Undefined symbols:
_main
_PyArg_ParseTuple
_PyErr_SetString
_PyExc_NameError
_PyModule_GetDict
_PyString_FromString
_PyType_Type
_Py_BuildValue
_Py_InitModule4
make[2]: *** [grampslib.so] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I'm guessing this is since ./configure doesn't test for the python
bindings, they don't get added to the make file?

Can anyone tell me if this seems correct, and where to get
conftest.py, that'd be great!

Thanks, 
Michael
