dogtail failing saying unable to find python headers or librarys inside scratchbox

[Siddu <siddu sjce gmail com>]

Hi Zack/scratchbox-users,

I am not on fedora. my host  system is UBUNTU 8.04 . and I am  developing applications in a controlled environment using cross compiling tool kit (scratchbox) for arm board.

and i wanted to run the dogtail GUI testtool for my apps . Hence i installed dogtail 0.6.0 (supposed to be the latest ) inside the scratchbox .

but when i try to ran simple python script which i wrote for my app it resulted in below error.

import gconf ImportError: No module named gconf )

and as u said i tried to install gnome-python2-gconf 

using basic installation steps configure (./configure --prefix=/usr/local) make && make install

but its failing saying unable to find python headers or librarys .  and i am pretty sure my target has python2.3 running inside /usr/local/bin/python apart from /scratchbox/tools/bin/python

I googled around but in vain. scratchbox-users got any clue ?

thanks in advance.

Regards,

Siddu

Hi Siddu,

If you're on Fedora you'll need gnome-python2-gconf. On other
distributions there should be a similarly-named package providing the
python bindings for GConf.
