Description

When executing PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 ./waf configure --prefix=/usr, I get the following error:

  ./options()

OK, it took me a bit of time to figure out how to apply this patch (see Gentoo link).

patch -Np1 -i ../pycairo-1.10.0-waf-unpack.patch
wafdir=$(./waf unpack)
pushd $wafdir
patch -Np1 -i ../../pycairo-1.10.0-waf-python34.patch
popd
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 ./waf configure --prefix=/usr
./waf build
./waf install

It built successfully with the above instructions.

In retrospect, I'm wondering if the first patch is necessary. All it does is displays the unpacked directory. You could surmise this.

Thank you very much, Wayne. Could not see how to do with just one patch, so, included both.

Fixed at r12899.
