Hello, I want to source compile the libvirt 0.8.4 with its Python bindings.
I have python 2.4 rpm installed but i dont use it. I use Python 2.7 source compiled version.
So when i compile libvirt it produces bindings for Python 2.4 which is obvious choice since it is rpm.
So how should i make it point to Python 2.7 so that it produces bindings for it. Installed path of Python 2.7 is /opt/Python2.7.
Please Guide me.
You can try to run ./configure --with-python=/opt/Python2.7 assuming that there is /opt/Python2.7/bin/python. Another possibility is to specify the Python binary per environment variable PYTHON=/opt/Python2.7/bin/python ./configure This will probably work but I'm not entirely sure as this is an uncommon configuration.
