On RHEL5 there is a python version 2.4, which is to old for
xcb-proto and libxcb.
The following 3 patches try to fix that problem, but need some help.
[PATCH 1/3] [python] remove broken 3.1 to make host-python work
With the selection 2.6 or 3.1 setup the host-python packet would not
work, because version number was not know in the download stage, so it
tried to download Python-.tar.gz instead of Python-2.6.4.tar.gz. Since
3.1 was already marked broken is removed it. A better solution might
be to make a python2 and pyhton3 packet, cause those versions of python
are not compatible.
[PATCH 2/3] [xcb-proto] Needs host-python to build on RHEL5
This adds detection for the installed python2.6, since ptx-python does
not install "python" the script will not find python at all.
[PATCH 3/3] [libxcb] host python detection
This does the same thing, just that due to some, for me, unknown cause
it will not resolve the version variable.
Marc pointed out that = should be used and not := , after changing that
it works.
