Hi, I am in the process of adding a new port. The code is in python and uses python's distutils to configure and install. I am using USE_PYDISTUTILS= yes for this and indeed the configure and build go alright. But then, upom the install stage it uses "libtool" which should in our case be libtool13 or libtool15 or which ever we have (provided it works). However, when adding USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15 or so (must search for the one(s) installed in the Makefile I guess) it croaks already at configure stage. Seems to ignore using distutils (says there's no configure) at all in that case, even if I put it in post-configure or pre-install. How can I solve this? Ideally in a PREFIX respecting way. Or is distutils support not as complete as I thought. Then I better see if I can fix that. It looks alright and complete AFAICT though. (the software in question is @: http://www.simonzone.com/software/pykdeextensions and I intend to put it under ports/develop -- needs py-qt and py-kde). Thanks, Dan
