Hi:
Background - MythTV is primarily written in C and C++ but certain
functions are implemented in Python. Not knowing Python--and more
specifically Python on OS X and even more specifically, Python on OS
X via MacPorts--I am at a loss as to the proper method to install
Myth's Python bindings. See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36783
Currently, Myth's Python bindings are being installed to:
/opt/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/MythTV
I understand they should be installed to:
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages
A user noticed that the shebang line on the involved setup.py was:
#!/usr/bin/env python
However, even after changing this to:
#!/opt/local/bin/python2.6
the bindings are still installed to the wrong place. The relevant
bit of the debug log seems to be:
make[1]: Entering directory
`/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_craigtreleaven_MacPortsTemp_mythtv-core.25_rev7/mythtv-core.25/work/mythtv-117b611e/mythtv/bindings/python'
/opt/local/bin/python2.6 setup.py install --skip-build
--root="/opt/local/var/macports/build/_Users_craigtreleaven_MacPortsTemp_mythtv-core.25_rev7/mythtv-core.25/work/destroot"

[Many lines omitted...]
Is it the --prefix flag that I need to modify? Do I just append
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6'? Or is there
something else?
Many thanks for any pointers.
Craig
