It appears that, after downloading and installing a bunch of libraries
for Gnummeric, I have overlooked the result. *You hit the point*.

Currently *I try* to get my copy of a gobject-introspection
source-package as the one provided on my system is not accepted by the
pygobject configure-script.

I cannot yet report success, but will in one of my following messages.
My Internet-connection is currently very slow.

*However, Suggestion*:
If you want to keep the compilation of plugin-loaders an option to the
Gnummeric configure-script, either let the configure-script bail out in
case of a missing library or (better) exclude the plugin-loader from
being configured by default, i.e. change the option to
 --with-python        *Do* build the Python plugin loader

Because the current solution "Do everything and do not fail if it ...
well... fails" isn't really ergonomic to the blind moles like me. ;-)

Thanks anyway,

Michael.
