All, This is a drive-by submission, so I didn't subscribe to the list. I've written a python module check macro for autoconf. It's pretty short, I'll stick it at the end of this email. Use it like this: AC_PYTHON_MODULE(wx) (checks for wxPython) As you'll see in the macro, it just fires up Python and tries to import the module you pass. If you guys take it, I'd appreciate a response just so I'll know when the next version comes out to start using it from there instead of using my own acinclude file. Otherwise, hope this helps somebody. :) Dave dnl macro that checks for specific modules in python AC_DEFUN([AC_PYTHON_MODULE], [AC_MSG_CHECKING(for module $1 in python) echo "import $1" | python - if test $? -ne 0 ; then AC_MSG_RESULT(not found) AC_MSG_ERROR(You need the module $1 available to python for this package) fi AC_MSG_RESULT(found) ]) _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
