Created attachment 8385 [details] [review]
Fixes it for me, no clue if it's the right patch

Comment 2 John (J5) Palmieri 2007-01-13 13:01:59 UTC

Is this from a clean checkout or overlaying an older checkout?

Comment 3 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2007-01-13 14:42:04 UTC

Clean checkout. There is no autotools directory anymore in dbus-python.

Oops, yes, my fault. Putting the autotools cruft in a subdirectory was probably
a mistake - I've commited your change and altered the .gitignore file accordingly.
