txt2tags cannot be found on your system, but tovid needs it to build

the man pages. Please install txt2tags (http://txt2tags.sf.net) and
70
run ./configure again. Thanks!

# As seen on http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Python
84
# AM_PATH_PYTHON sets many vars, including $(pythondir), which is the directory
85
# name for the site-packages subdirectory of the standard Python install tree;
86
# and $(pyexecdir), which is the directory where Python extension modules
87
# (shared libraries) should be installed.
89
# For example, on friedrij's woody debian system
90
# $(pythondir) = ${prefix}/lib/python2.3/site-packages
91
# $(pyexecdir) = ${exec_prefix}/lib/python2.3/site-packages
93
# From the autoconf manual, available in anything _but_ html (uf, fsf) from
94
# http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/index.html
95
# $(prefix) is "The common installation prefix for all files. If $(exec_prefix)
96
# is defined to a different value, prefix is used only for architecture-
98
# $(exec_prefix) is "The installation prefix for architecture-dependent files.
99
# By default it's the same as $(prefix). You should avoid installing anything
100
# directly to $(exec_prefix). However, the default value for directories
101
# containing architecture-dependent files should be relative to $(exec_prefix)."
103
# The GNU Coding Standards, available in html (yosh) from
104
# (http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Directory-Variables),
105
# clarifies the difference between $(prefix) and $(exec_prefix): "Generally,
106
# $(exec_prefix) is used for directories that contain machine-specific files
107
# (such as executables and subroutine libraries), while $(prefix) is used
108
# directly for other directories."
110
# So, this dev thinks we need $(pythondir) and some 'enlightened' python
111
# scripts, as pointed out by
112
# http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Hard_002dCoded-Install-Paths
113
# If you do [use $(pythondir) or $(pyexecdir)], then:
114
# * root users can install your package with the same --prefix as Python (you
115
# get the behavior of the previous attempt - eg /usr/lib/python-2.3/...)
116
# * non-root users can install your package too, they will have the extension
117
# module in a place that is not searched by Python but they can work around
118
# this using environment variables (and if you installed scripts that use
119
# this shared library, it's easy to tell Python were to look in the
120
# beginning of your script, so the script works in both cases).
122
# Using pythondir_PYTHON for libtovid will install it to
123
# ${prefix}/lib/python2.3/site-packages (for example)
124
# and the pytovid suite (left as bin_SCRIPTS, so that they are installed as
125
# executables and not byte-compiled like python_PYTHON would do) will need to be
126
# told how to look for libtovid.
130
# Attempt to inform user that their pyton installation won't work
131
# with the default prefix (/usr/local)

133
PYTHON_LOCAL=$(echo $USER_PYTHON_PATH | awk -F ',' '{ for (f=1; f<=NF; f++) {print $f}; }' | grep local | tr -d "' ")
135
if test -z $PYTHON_LOCAL && test x"$prefix" == "xNONE"; then
140
It looks like your python installation doesn't look in /usr/local for
141
python modules. tovid installs a few modules on your system, and if
142
python can't find them, then tovid won't work!
144
Please try: ./configure --prefix=/usr
146
to install tovid in a place where python will look for modules. Thanks!
