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. > > Regards, > Jean > > Le mardi 19 février 2013 à 09:30 +0100, bat.gu...@don.blech.e4ward.com a > écrit : >> I am sorry, >> >> my previous messages had accidentally been addressed directly to Morten. >> That had not been my intention.
