Hello everyone,
I would like to compile libhid (because I couldn't find it already
compiled) on mac os x 10.5.x. When I run configure it dies saying it
can't link against my python lib and that it may be installed in an
alternative location or that I need to install a dev version of
python. I'm using the version shipped with 10.5, does anyone know how
to fix this?
Thank you,
Gabriel
Here's some more info, it does this :

Could not link test program to Python. Maybe the main Python library has been

ERROR!
You probably have to install the development version of the Python package
for your distribution. The exact name of this package varies among them.

I looked at this line :
checking for Python library path...
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/config/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Python
and that path doesn't exist, this one does though :
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/config/
and inside there is libpython2.5.a which is the static python lib, I tried
doing as it said :
./configure
LDFLAGS="-L/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/config/"
with no luck though.
Thank you,
Gabriel
