08:12:58 TylerM: wildintellect: thanks for the expo pack sumamry.. great work
12:26:05 landa: hi all, I am trying to compile GRASS with python support
12:26:29 landa: I realized that python-config is missing in osgeo4w, would be possible to include it?
12:30:35 jef: landa: it needs a shell and doesn't make much sense with msvc. gdal-config also isn't included.
12:31:42 landa: jef: ok, on the other hand it make sense for standard configuration, see --with-python swith
12:34:04 landa: jef: sorry, maybe I am not getting the point, why python-config could be included, at least for mingw compilation?
12:35:18 jef: landa: python is build with msvc and that's also what distutils is configured for.
12:36:46 jef: landa: I didn't build python. maybe python-config isn't build in that case at all.
12:37:44 jef: landa: I handcrafted a gdal-config for mingw-libs. maybe that could be done for python-config, too
12:39:31 jef: landa: wouldn't it be better for grass to use distutils?
12:39:56 landa: jef: yes, it's in my TODO ( just low priority )
12:57:57 landa: jef: maybe I am blind, trying to find swig in osgeo4w...
12:58:54 jef: landa: no, you're not. it's not there.
13:01:04 landa: jef: I remember I used swig in the past inside osgeo4w, not sure how I get it...
13:04:52 jef: landa: http://buten.norbit.de/~jef/swig.exe is what I use.
