Thank you for your response. I am = compiling geda-gaf from source. I have always done

this with previous releases. The precompiled geda-gaf = binaries for Ubuntu 18.04 are from

1.8.2. As I = understand it, the latest release 1.10 has significant new features = which I=E2=80=99d

like to use.

I am able to invoke the = python2 interpreter from the command prompt. I can also invoke

the python3 interpreter.

I think the problem lies in the = configure.ac script for xorn. It checks for python and cannot

find it.

Any further insights you have would be welcome.

Additionally you should be able to type python2 at the command prompt and bring up the Python interpreter. (quit() to exit.) Assuming the interpreter was installed at the = nominal location.

Gang,
I've just installed Ubuntu 18.04 and am trying to install =
geda-gaf-1.10.0.
I got past the gamin errors I was getting but am now stuck at a new
error I cannot quite figure out.

After running:
sudo ./configure --prefix=3D/opt/geda/geda-gaf-1.10.0

All is well until I see:

checking for PYTHON... no
configure: error: Package requirements (python2 >=3D 2.7) were not =
met:

No package 'python2' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PYTHON_CFLAGS
and PYTHON_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
configure: error: ./configure failed for xorn

At this point I am stumped.  Have looked at many resources but to no =
avail. Python
is at version 2.7.15.

Any help folks?

Thanks,
Roger Traylor
