Re: python support in CVS.

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just updated with "cvs update", and I'm now getting this when doing
a "make install":

[Beginning Snipped]
/usr/bin/install -c .libs/tn5250 /usr/local/bin/tn5250
 /bin/sh ../libtool  --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c  lp5250d
/usr/local/bin/lp5250d
/usr/bin/install -c .libs/lp5250d /usr/local/bin/lp5250d
make: don't know how to make install-exec-local. Stop
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/home/klemscot/tn5250cvs/tn5250/src.


When I edit src/Makefile I see that there is an "install-exec-local",
but its commented out:


#install-exec-local:
#       ( cd $(pysodir) && ln -sf lib_tn5250module.so _tn5250module.so )


Can someone commit a fix to this?
