Adam, Your import test exercises the distro version of dbus-python, not the GARNOME version.
A few things to check... * make sure that ./freedesktop/dbus-python built and installed * see where GARNOME is installing python things - $garnome/lib/python-2.4/site-packages - $garnome/lib64/python-2.4/site-packages and adjust PYTHONPATH in gar.conf.mk accordingly. To re-run your import test for the GARNOME build of dbus-python, use $ PYTHONPATH=xxxxxxxxx python >>> import dbus -Joseph ======================================================================== On Mon, 2007-06-11 at 14:41 -0400, adam wrote: > Hi, > > Attempting to compile garnome 2.19.3 on x86_64 and receiving this error : > > checking for /usr/bin/python script directory... > ${prefix}/lib/python2.4/site-packages > checking for /usr/bin/python extension module directory... > ${exec_prefix}/lib64/python2.4/site-packages > checking for python module gtk... yes > checking for python module dbus... no > configure: error: Could not find Python module dbus > make[6]: *** [configure-work/main.d/avahi-0.6.17/configure] Error 1 > make[6]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/freedesktop/avahi' > make[5]: *** [../../freedesktop/avahi/cookies/main.d/install] Error 2 > make[5]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/platform/gnome-vfs' > make[4]: *** [../../platform/gnome-vfs/cookies/main.d/install] Error 2 > make[4]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/platform/libgnome' > make[3]: *** [../../platform/libgnome/cookies/main.d/install] Error 2 > make[3]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/platform/libbonoboui' > make[2]: *** [../../platform/libbonoboui/cookies/main.d/install] Error 2 > make[2]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/platform/libgnomeui' > make[1]: *** [../../platform/libgnomeui/cookies/main.d/install] Error 2 > make[1]: Leaving directory > `/home/adam/garnome/garnome-2.19.3/desktop/bug-buddy' > make: *** [paranoid-install] Error 2 > > -- > > However, running the following works : > > >>> import dbus > >>> dir(dbus) > ['Array', 'Boolean', 'Bus', 'Byte', 'ByteArray', 'ConnectionError', > 'DBusException', 'DeferedMethod', 'Dictionary', 'Double', 'Int16', > 'Int32', 'Int64', 'Interface', 'IntrospectionParserException', > 'MissingErrorHandlerException', 'MissingReplyHandlerException', > 'NameExistsException', 'ObjectPath', 'ProxyMethod', 'ProxyObject', > 'SessionBus', 'SignalMatchNode', 'SignalMatchRule', 'SignalMatchTree', > 'Signature', 'StarterBus', 'String', 'Struct', 'SystemBus', 'UInt16', > 'UInt32', 'UInt64', 'UnknownMethodException', 'ValidationException', > 'Variant', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', > '__path__', '_dbus', '_dbus_main_loop_setup_function', 'dbus', > 'dbus_bindings', 'exceptions', 'introspect_parser', 'matchrules', > 'proxies', 'sys', 'types', 'version', 'weakref'] > > > rpm -q --queryformat %{name}.%{arch} dbus-python > dbus-python.x86_64 > > I've attempted to set both PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME to only search > lib64/python../site-packages but have been unsuccessful. > > Any help appreciated :) -- jsacco [at] gnome [dot] org -- garnome-list mailing list garnome-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/garnome-list
