[Gdal-dev] 'make install' and NG Python Bindings

[William Kyngesburye]

Finally got thru the Leopard build.  The swig python scripts are not  
installed at all. From what I see in the makefile, the script install  
is trapped inside the itest target, which isn't referenced anywhere:

itest:
	echo $(SCRIPTS)
	for f in $(SCRIPTS) ; do $(INSTALL) ./scripts/$$f $(DESTDIR)$ 
(INST_BIN) ; done
