[libvirt-users] Python Bindings for Python 2.7
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. Thanks Vipul

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.

Thanks for the Reply Matthias. The ./configure --with-python=/opt/Python2.7 worked. But when i do make I go this error related with sax parser. make[3]: Entering directory `/root/libvirt-0.8.4/python' /opt/Python-2.7//bin/python ./generator.py .

seems your hand compiled version of python has a problem and lacks XML/expat support. Unrelated to libvirt, Fedora uses Python 2.7 and I have no problem with it.
