Description Mathieu Lacage 2008-07-25 12:05:39 UTC

it would be really helpful if running ./waf configure --python-disable was enough and if we did not have to specify also ./waf --python-disable to build the code, but just "./waf" after the configuration.

Comment 1 Mathieu Lacage 2008-07-25 12:19:25 UTC

ok, it looks like my real problem is that python/everything.h is generated unconditionally, even after configure --python-disable but running ./waf --python-disable disables its generation.

gustavo, can you review and apply if ok ?

Comment 4 Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2008-07-26 10:06:18 UTC

For the record, --python-disable _is_ a configure option.  It is both configure and build option.  When used in configure, it "sticks", in build it only applies to that build.
