[Orbit-python-list] orbit-python compile ?'s

[Brad C. <cha...@ar...>]

Hey all;
    I was starting to play around with orbit-python (the most recent 
0.1.2 release) last night and ran into some compile problems in idl.cc

g++295 -DPACKAGE=\"orbit-python\" -DVERSION=\"0.1.2\"  -I. -I.  
-I/usr/local/include/python1.5 -I/usr/local/include/python1.5 -fpic -O 
-pipe -D_THREAD_SAFE -I/usr/local/include/glib12 -I/usr/local/include  
  
-g -O2 -c idl.cc

get_exception_typecode(_IDL_tree_node *)':

gmake[1]: *** [idl.o] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/home/chapmanb/orbit-python-0.1.2/src'
gmake: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I'm working on FreeBSD 3.3, and compiling with:
$ g++295 -v
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)

Could you all offer any suggestions/hints? I'm still learning about 
porting etc., and so I apologize in advance if there is an obvious 
solution :)

    BTW, I started by trying to compile from the cvs source, and am 
missing some macros:
aclocal: configure.in: 7: macro `AM_INIT_PYEXEC_MOD' not found in 
library
aclocal: configure.in: 8: macro `AM_PATH_PYTHON' not found in library
aclocal: configure.in: 16: macro `AM_PATH_ORBIT' not found in library
Is there a good source for these? I started hunting around but only 
found AM_INIT_PYEXEC_MOD (which still depends on AM_PATH). 
    Thanks in advance!
