I modified the .info file to call /usr/bin/python instead of python2.3 in
two places, and the package built successfully. (To be extremely and
probably unnecessarily precise, I had it call /usr/bin/python2.5 instead,
but the two symlinks eventually point at the same thing on my system.)
In order to get it to run, I had to modify $PYTHONPATH, as
/sw/etc/profile.d/offlineimap.{csh,sh} set it to include
/sw/lib/python2.3/site-packages, but the package actually puts its stuff
into /sw/lib/python2.5/site-packages, as you might expect. With the
obvious change to the environment variable, it ran like a charm.
Thanks to you and Daniel for your help!
(And Daniel, I should have mentioned up-thread that I CC'd offlineimap's
maintainer; he's been getting all these emails.)
