pkg-config does not use Debian packages names. Try using "python" for

Thanks but --list-all only lists notify-python and dbus-python.
Odd. Try python2.6-config.
No, that's not there either.
http://bugs.python.org/issue3585 suggests that pkg-config support in Python
was not added until at least 2.6. Perhaps it did not make it in the version I
have. Besides, I also wanted it to detect Python 2.4. So this method won't
work unfortunately.
You can also extract this information from various methods in the
distutils package. Even if you aren't using distutils to control the
build, you could ask Python itself to print out the configuration
variables. For instance:
python -c "import distutils.sysconfig; print
distutils.sysconfig.get_python_inc()"
That should give you the Python include directory. There are other
methods to get library names, compiler flags, and other things.
