Giving the command "./autogen" and "./configure" went well. So did make, but the "make install returns the following errors: /bin/install -c -m 644 aliasing.py capabilities.py connection.py debug.py __init__.py presence.py avatars.py channel_manager.py connection_manager.py contacts.py handle.py mail_notification.py protocol.py '/usr/local/lib/python3.2/site-packages/butterfly' Byte-compiling python modules... aliasing.py File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/site-packages/butterfly/aliasing.py", line 64 alias = u"" ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax capabilities.pyconnection.py File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/site-packages/butterfly/connection.py", line 107 except Exception, e: ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax debug.py__init__.pypresence.py File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/site-packages/butterfly/presence.py", line 151 message = arguments.get('message', u'') ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax avatars.pychannel_manager.pyconnection_manager.pycontacts.pyhandle.pymail_notification.pyprotocol.py File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/site-packages/butterfly/protocol.py", line 64 'server' : u'messenger.hotmail.com', ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Butterfly is Python 2 code, which is not compatible with Python 3. On most distributions, /usr/bin/python is Python 2 and /usr/bin/python3 is Python 3. Try: ./configure PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2.7 make make install (or replace /usr/bin/python2.7 as appropriate to get a Python executable with 2.5 <= version < 3).
