[Openev-discuss] Re: openEV

[Frank W. <war...@po...>]

Mike, 

I didn't write the install stuff for OpenEV, and so am a bit unfamiliar with
it.  I downloaded, and inspected how the unix install stuff works, and I 
have a couple of questions. 

Can you email me some of the errors from the attempt to byte compile the
scripts? 

Do you have a /usr/bin/env program?

Skimming over the "install" script, it isn't clear to me that the PATH,
PYHONHOME and PYTHONPATH environment variables are set before doing the
compileall.  It may be that some of the environment variable settings
in setup_openev should also be in the install script.  

I am cc:ing this message to the openev-discuss list, but best place to
get help.  The folks more knowledgable about the install mechanisms are
on that list. 

Best regards,
