Description Björn Lindqvist 2005-09-06 08:45:47 UTC 
./configure --enable-python without Pyrex installed gives:

configure: error: Building python explicitly requested, but can't build python
bindings

It should be:

configure: error: Building python explicitly requested, but can't build python
bindings because either Pyrex or the Python headers was not found

So you don't have to scratch your head and read the README file.
