Hey all, I am hoping someone has had a problem similar to this and might be
able to help me.

When I set up my CentOS 5 system it had Python 2.4.  I upgrades to Python
2.5 in order to run Buildbot.  Unfortunately I am running into a problem
where Buildbot is calling to Zope, which is in turn attempting to import
gobject, which fails.

If I start my Python2.4 interpreter I can import gobject fine.  I tried
installing pygobject 2.16.0 from source, but it failed to configure saying
it could not find glib > 2.14.0.

config.log, about 2/3 through, says 'glib_major_version' undeclared, and the
error seems to repeat for minor and micro.

I downloaded glib 2.18.4 and attempted to install that from source, whih
went off without a hitch.  Returning and attempting to install pygobject
2.16.0 and I get the same error, with it claiming that it is unable to find
glib > 2.14 and with the same errors in the log.

I am sure there is something simple I am doing wrong, but my Linux-Fu is a
little rusty.  Can anyone point me in the right direction for getting Python
2.5 to find and use gobject?

Ian
