Re: Gnumeric & Python

It has to be a deal more complicated than that I'm afraid.
1) My python is installed under /usr/local
2) The variable you actually want is LOCALMODLIBS
3) You need to hack the contents of the variable because it contains (on
my system at least) -L$(exec_prefix)/lib which bash chokes on.

I thought I had a patch which sorted this out, but I realised in time that
it didn't work, so I saved myself the embarassment of posting dud code to
the list.
