Package: autoconf-archive Version: 20070512-1 Severity: important Tags: patch
as I had to use AX_BOOST_PYTHON I found that it's outdated and relativly broken here. So to fix the problem I decided to make an reimplementation to ax_boost_python and update ax_python with python2.5 -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash autoconf-archive depends on no packages.

##### http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ax_boost_python.html # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_BOOST_PYTHON # # DESCRIPTION # # This macro checks to see if the Boost.Python library is installed. # It also attempts to guess the currect library name using several # attempts. It tries to build the library name using a user supplied # name or suffix and then just the raw library. # # If the library is found, HAVE_BOOST_PYTHON is defined and # BOOST_PYTHON_LIB is set to the name of the library. # # This macro calls AC_SUBST(BOOST_PYTHON_LIBS). # # In order to ensure that the Python headers are specified on the # include path, this macro requires AX_PYTHON to be called. # # LAST MODIFICATION # # 2007-07-29 # # COPYLEFT # # Copyright (c) 2005 Michael Tindal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # Copyright © 2007 Carl Fürstenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or # modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as # published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the # License, or (at your option) any later version. # # This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but # WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of # MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

##### http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ax_python.html # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_PYTHON # # DESCRIPTION # # This macro does a complete Python development environment check. # # It recurses through several python versions (from 2.1 to 2.4 in # this version), looking for an executable. When it finds an # executable, it looks to find the header files and library. # # It sets PYTHON_BIN to the name of the python executable, # PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR to the directory holding the header files, and # PYTHON_LIB to the name of the Python library. # # This macro calls AC_SUBST on PYTHON_BIN (via AC_CHECK_PROG), # PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR and PYTHON_LIB. # # LAST MODIFICATION # # 2007-07-29 # # COPYLEFT # # Copyright (c) 2004 Michael Tindal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or # modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as # published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the # License, or (at your option) any later version. # # This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but # WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of # MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
