Hi Stefan,
The pregenerated SWIG files shipped with Subversion are supposed to
work on all platforms, but there may of course be bugs. Can you post a
log of what commands you typed during your build? Start with the tar
command that extracts from the tarball, and let me know whether or not
you ran "autogen.sh".
Tip: If you extract from a release tarball, you shouldn't run
autogen.sh, because the release tarball already has pregenerated
headers, and running autogen.sh without cleaning out the old headers
can cause you to use a mixed set of headers from multiple versions of
SWIG. I don't know if this issue affects you, but it is a common
problem.
Cheers,
David
