[libhid-discuss] Error while building libhid.

[ankita prasad]

Hi All,

I am running red hat enterprise linux 5 and want to compile teh libhid
libraries on my machine.

I downloaded the tar ball from http://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=30451 .
When i run ./configure my configure fails with the following  error

configure:22913: result: no
configure:22927: error:
  Could not link test program to Python. Maybe the main Python library has
been
  installed in some non-standard library path. If so, pass it to configure,
  via the LDFLAGS environment variable.
  Example: ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/non-standard-path/python/lib"

============================================================================
   ERROR!
   You probably have to install the development version of the Python
package
   for your distribution.  The exact name of this package varies among them.
 I have python and it development libraries installed at their usual
(/usr/lib/python2.4) location.

I am attaching my config.log to the this email. Could anyone look at it and
tell me what is it that I am missing.

Thanks!
Ankita
