Hello, Bug 89328 [0] shows that Mesa releases will not build without python. If there is no python installed in the system, the build's configuration step is going to fail due to python mako module check.
The idea behind this patch is to disable the python mako module check when python is not installed in the system: if it needs to do something with python, it is going to fail anyway. Emil suggested another way of doing the same: the macro will set a variable that we check in configure. Something like: PYTHON_MAKO_REQUIRED=0.3.4 AX_CHECK_PYTHON_MAKO_MODULE($PYTHON_MAKO_REQUIRED) if test -n "$PYTHON2" -a $foo_mako_found = no; then AC_MSG_ERROR([Python mako module v$PYTHON_MAKO_MODULE not found]) fi Which one do you prefer? Is there a better solution for this?
