Re: [gtk-osx-users] Building on PPC fails

[Steffen Gutmann <muibase yahoo com>]

Hi John,

thanks for the hint.  I will try that as well.

It seems there is another problem when building for 10.4/10.4u.

Building libxm2l fails with the message:

ld: library not found for -lpython2.5

I guess the problem is that the 10.4u SDK only has python 2.3.  If I do a 'jhbuild build python' (as described on the build web page) then it uses the python lib provided by jhbuild and libxml2 compiles. But this does not seem to be described properly on the build web page (where it says you only need to 'jhbuild build python' when compiling on Tiger for the purpose of extracting archives).  Or maybe I misunderstood that part.

Regards,

Steffen
