Thanks for explaining.
When running:
./configure --help
it shows this:
--enable-python Enable python
If I use it, I get this:
nft configuration:
cli support: yes
enable debugging symbols: yes
use mini-gmp: no
enable man page: yes
libxtables support: yes
json output support: yes
enable Python: yes (with yes) <------
$ make
...
setup.py build --build-base /home/pablo/devel/scm/git-netfilter/nftables/py
setup.py build --build-base /home/pablo/devel/scm/git-netfilter/nftables/py
setup.py build --build-base /home/pablo/devel/scm/git-netfilter/nftables/py
...
(forever loop)
so it indeed uses 'yes' :-)
same effect in case I specify --with-python-bin with no path, ie.
./configure --with-python-bin --with-xtables --enable-python --with-json
Thanks!
