[Paraview] [PV-3.6.1] Problem compiling with Python in linux x86_64

[Renato Elias]

Hi Alan,

it seems that CMake is correctly picking up my compiled version of Python
and bypassing the system version.

The following lines were copied from CMakeCache.txt file:

//Path to a program.
PYTHON_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/sw/shared/x86_64/Python/2.6.2/bin/python2.6

//Path to a file.
PYTHON_INCLUDE_PATH:PATH=/sw/shared/x86_64/Python/2.6.2/include/python2.6

//Path to a library.
PYTHON_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/sw/shared/x86_64/Python/2.6.2/lib/libpython2.6.a

but I still get the same error message :-(

any clue?

Moreover, how can I force the make process to be more verbose?

Renato.
