           Summary: Cerbero build of pygobject fails on Mac OS X without
                    'python2'
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Mac OS
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: cerbero
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: brion at pobox.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
            Blocks: 738622
     GNOME version: ---


Mac OS X installs 'python', 'python2.5', 'python2.6', 'python2.7' etc but no
'python2'.

This breaks the build of pygobject, which specifically configures for python2:

configure: error: Python interpreter python2 does not exist
Running command './configure --prefix /Users/brion/cerbero/dist/darwin_x86_64
--libdir /Users/brion/cerbero/dist/darwin_x86_64/lib --with-python=python2
--disable-maintainer-mode  --disable-silent-rules  --enable-introspection 
--build=x86_64-apple-darwinx'


Workaround: make a symlink manually:

 $ cd /usr/bin && sudo ln -s python2.7 python2
