Hi John,

This morning I tried manually replacing @VARIABLE_NAME@ with sensible values 
and I created the missing config.py file (note that I didn't modify 
config.py.in - I just copied it, replacing those particular values).  However, 
when I run my python command I still get the same error message:-

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"F:/+GTK-SOURCES/gnu-win32/src/glib/gio/gdbus-2.0/codegen/gdbus-codegen.in", 
line 39, in <module>
    from codegen import codegen_main
  File "F:\+GTK-SOURCES\gnu-win32\src\glib\gio\gdbus-2.0\codegen\codegen.py", 
line 26, in <module>
    from . import config
ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

Note that these lines seem to be the ones causing the error:-

from  <whatever>  import  <something>

Python doesn't seem to know what to do when it encounters that instruction.

John
