Hello, the cause of the FTBFS is just that missing _Buffy.so symlink in the python directory.
What is happening is that the .so python module is created with libtool. libtool creates the python .so module in .lib/ but the tests won't find it there: with a symlink, the tests are happy. The symlink is shipped with the package itself. For some reason, it disappears in the buildds, but NOT in my system, NOR in my sid chroots. One potential fix is to edit the makefile (python/Makefile.am) so that it creates the symlink if it's missing; but since I can't reproduce it, I cannot test it. Any chance any of you can give it a try? (if you can reproduce the FTBFS, at least). Ciao, Enrico -- GPG key: 1024D/797EBFAB 2000-12-05 Enrico Zini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
