Re: gobject-introspection does not compile [was: Gnome-Python for Gnumeric 1.12]

[Jean Bréfort <jean brefort normalesup org>]

1.31.22 looks like an unstable version. Which distribution are you
using? I believe most should have an appropriate package.

Btw, you should build gnumeric (as well as goffice and libgsf) with
introspection support. That would bring in much more things available
for the Python code.

I patched configure so that when called with --with-python, it fails
when some Python related dependency is missing.

Jean
