libvirt users - Jan 2011 - Python Bindings for Python 2.7

Hello,
          I want to source compile the libvirt 0.8.4 with its Python
bindings.

I have python 2.4 rpm installed but i dont use it. I use Python 2.7 source
compiled version.

So when i compile libvirt it produces bindings for Python 2.4 which is
obvious  choice since it is rpm.

So how should i make it point to Python 2.7 so that it produces bindings for
it.  Installed path of Python 2.7 is /opt/Python2.7.

Please Guide me.

Thanks
Vipul

You can try to run

  ./configure --with-python=/opt/Python2.7

assuming that there is /opt/Python2.7/bin/python.

Another possibility is to specify the Python binary per environment variable

  PYTHON=/opt/Python2.7/bin/python ./configure

This will probably work but I'm not entirely sure as this is an
uncommon configuration.
