RE: Problems using the Python bindings with Trac on SuSE 9.1

What's that noise... oh wait, that's the ringing of a bell...

I had some issues compiling/installing the python bindings on an antique
RH7.0 box. I eventually discovered I had to install the python2.x-devel RPM
then re-run make swig-py. (Might have been a "make distclean" in there too,
I'm afraid.)

In retrospect, it totally baffles me that the build process for the python
bindings doesn't fail when the necessary libraries and headers are missing.
Not only that, it *appears* to install correctly too... but I believe the
libsvn directory was missing until this was resolved. Maybe an issue needs
to be filed for this? At the time, I blew it off to being "just me" but if
this fixes Bryan's problem too then I suppose it isn't...

(PS - another thing I needed to do in my case was upgrade GCC & friends.
The RH7.0 version had a bug regarding the definition of LONG_BIT which
creeped up on "make swig-py". I doubt this will be an issue for Bryan on
SuSE 9 though...)
