[pygtk] Issues when building from source - missing _gtk.so

[themanatuf at juno.com]

I've spent a few hours on this one and I'm having some troubles. I'm trying to build PyGTK 2.12.1 from source and everything builds fine except _gtk.so. I'm using Python 2.6 (hence trying to build PyGTK from source) and here is what I feel is the relevant information from the configure script (please let me know if more is needed):

# ./configure --prefix=/usr
...
The following modules will be built:

atk
gtk with 2.10 API
gtk.unixprint

The following modules will NOT be built:

pango
pangocairo
gtk.glade

When I run make it creates a file called _gtk.la and in the .libs directory has:

atk.exp
atk.la -> ../atk.la
atk_la-atkmodule.o
atk_la-atk.o
atk.lai
atk.so
atk.ver

I would have expected the gtk stuff to show up in there as well, but it doesn't. Searching for _gtk.so within the PyGTK source directory returns nothing.

Can anyone please help me figure out why _gtk.so isn't getting built? I'm sure it's something stupid, like a flag I forgot on the configure line. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Chris
