<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I am attempting to compile gdal with python support. However, I don't want to use the system installed python; I want to use a locally compiled version of python. I am unable to find how to select the python version to use with the
gdal install.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It seems that --with-python doesn't have an option to set the python install directory; --with-hdf5 can set the install directory of hdf5.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a way to set gdal to point to a different install directory for python?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If not, how does gdal find the path to python? Is it possible to set an environment variable (I am compiling on GNU/Linux)?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
