[geos-devel] GEOS 3 RC4 refuses to build unless Python is installed

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Hi everyone,

It appears as if the recently added AM_PATH_PYTHON macro defaults to
aborting configure if Python is not found. The attached patch allows
configure to continue with use_python set to false if a python binary is
not found, as per
http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Python.


Kind regards,

Mark.
