I did not manage to build the python bindings (I did not try the other ones). In scripts/python, the README says to simply "python setup.py build". However, if I run that command in that directory, that yields a Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 26, in <module> shutil.copyfile(os.path.join(srcdir, "openbabel.py"), "openbabel.py") File "/usr/lib/python2.6/shutil.py", line 48, in copyfile raise Error("`%s` and `%s` are the same file" % (src, dst)) shutil.Error: `openbabel.py` and `openbabel.py` are the same file If I run it from the top source level like "python scripts/python/setup.py build", I get In file included from scripts/python/../../include/openbabel/obutil.h:46, from scripts/python/openbabel-python.cpp:3018: scripts/python/../../include/openbabel/rand.h:41: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before ‘void’ Is this because I have not installed openbabel to /usr yet? I am trying to build a Debian/Ubuntu package, so this will never be the case. I get the same error message as above if I run it from the build directory (but as the python setup.py creates another "build" directory, I guess this is not the right course of action anyway). So how exactly are the python bindings supposed to be built? I would say running "mkdir build; cd build; cmake ..; make" should build the python bindings as well, provided that feature has not been switched off and the necessary packages are installed.
