That's a good way to work around the upstream autotools setup. Ideally this should be fixed upstream of course, which means making some changes at least to Makefile.am. I'll hit you up offlist and see if I can help craft a reasonable patch that can be sent upstream. (I meant to send this yesterday, but forgot. In the interim, I did make a patch to change the python build process. If there are any autotools gurus interested in mocking it and teaching me a few things, it's here: http://tmz.fedorapeople.org/tmp/gpsd-python-autotools.diff I'd enjoy hearing what I screwed up the most. I believe that the simplest fix would have been to just replace python_PYTHON with pyexec_PYTHON, but I just didn't care for the way the module was being built using a setup.py's build_ext. I also added a configure check for Python.h, which upstream was lacking. I even fixed the included gpsd.spec.in, which had a comment blaming autoconfig for putting the python files in /usr/lib even on 64 bit systems. :) Hence the larger patch that removes setup.py and touches a few more files.) -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So I don't get hurt?!
