18:10 < Luke-Jr> cfields: PYTHONPATH isn't being exported by make. I'm coming up blank trying to find any autoconf standard way to do this

22:07 < berndj> Luke-Jr, does 'export PYTHONPATH' in Makefile.am not work?

23:14 < Luke-Jr> berndj: I think that would be a GNU-ism - is that how it's supposed to be done?

23:33 < berndj> Luke-Jr, judging by what automake itself does, you could take the pattern 'PYTHONPATH=/blah; python foo.py'; could be a bit messy if you need to do that often

23:34 < berndj> maybe something like PATHED_PYTHON = PYTHONPATH=$(PYTHONPATH); $(PYTHON) - and then call it as $(PATHED_PYTHON) foo.py?

23:34 < Luke-Jr> hmm

23:35 < Luke-Jr> rather not have to decide which python interpreter to use

23:38 < berndj> it's just an AM_PATH_PYTHON away. but you could just run it directly as 'python'

23:38 < berndj> (AM_PATH_PYTHON is for putting into configure.ac, not for Makefile.am)
