To build D-Bus Python as the Python 2 module, run the following commands: mkdir python2 && pushd python2 && PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 \ ../configure --prefix=/usr --docdir=/usr/share/doc/dbus-python-&dbus-python-version; && make && popd To test the results, issue: make -C python2 check. One test reports error due to dbus issues. To build D-Bus Python as the Python 3 module, run the following commands: mkdir python3 && pushd python3 && PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 \ ../configure --prefix=/usr --docdir=/usr/share/doc/dbus-python-&dbus-python-version; && make && popd To test the results, issue: make -C python3 check. To install the Python 2 module, run the following command as the root user: make -C python2 install To install the Python 3 module, run the following command as the root user: make -C python3 install Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories None None /usr/share/doc/dbus-python-&dbus-python-version; and /usr/lib/python&python2-majorver;/site-packages/dbus and/or /usr/lib/python&python3-majorver;/site-packages/dbus
