Re: [Python-gtkextra-devel] build problems on MacOS X

[Toby D. R. <to...@so...>]

The python wrappers for gtkextra you are trying to compile are for gtk2
and gtkextra2. The precompiled gtk+extra package downloaded and installed
is for gtk version 1.

Get gtkextra2 from its cvs repository and install that first. It sometimes
requires tweaking to get it to work straight out of cvs. If you do not
succeed, I can provide a tarball that is known to work.
