I fixed FindPythonLibs and another Python module for cmake a few months ago, because right now those two stock modules don't work on Fedora or Ubuntu--which means building Kicad on those platforms is trickier than you'd expect. > > They said my patches look fine, and they'd be glad to accept them--as soon as they get a python maintainer for all of Cmake.
"They" are python project devs, or distro folks? Such a maintainer would maintain what exactly, what project and what package?

Then people can debug their python modules through the python interpreter itself too. That really helps when you're writing a module in C. I'll include an example module in the install too. >> >> Best Regards, Brian. >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers >> Post to : [email protected] >> Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers >> More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp >> >
