I used the following in my build script: ======================= python ./configure.py -k $PREFIX -L $LIBDIR -n $LIBDIR/kde3 -o /usr/include make || exit 1 make install DESTDIR=$PKG python importTest.py ======================= Where $PREFIX and $LIBDIR are the same as all other build scripts. The build stalls at the same point. I really don't know whether anything is happening, but I wait for about 10 minutes. The configure.py script needs verbosity. There are long periods when the user does not know if anything is happening. For example, when creating the make files. Would be nice if something appeared on screen. Darrell
