This makes little sense. It may be related to having Python installed
in: "/usr/local" but Python should know where it is installed. But,
perhaps, some symbolic links to: "/usr" could help.
/usr/bin/python -> /usr/local/bin/python
/usr/lib/python -> /usr/local/lib/python
/usr/include/python -> /usr/local/include/python
IIRC, I had to do that when I still had Python installed in: "/usr/local".
If it was CMake that couldn't find something, you can set the two CMake
environment variables that very roughly correspond to the normal ones
for AutoTools (but ONLY for specifying paths!):
CPPFLAGS CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
LD_FLAGS CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH
and they use the same syntax as other PATH environment variables.
