#33566 closed defect

glib2: checking whether /usr/bin/python version >= 2.5... configure: error: too old — at Version 1

Reported by: sleepyjake@… Owned by: ryandesign@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.4
Keywords: lion Cc:
Port: glib2

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

I have loaded Python 2.7 via macports 2.0.4, as well as py27-numpy and py27-scipy sucessfully (I think). When I try to install py27-matplotlib 1.1.0 most dependencies load until things get to glib2 where the install fails. I have search the web and past tickets for a solution. I have tried the few suggestions I have found without success. I have a macbook, lion 10.7.3, xcode 4.2.

The solution (ticket #32263) below does not work: 

sudo port clean glib2
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install glib2

Summary: glib2 @2.30.2 + port install + failure → glib2: checking whether /usr/bin/python version >= 2.5... configure: error: too old

The log says: 

:info:configure checking whether /usr/bin/python version >= 2.5... configure: error: too old

This is strange because Lion should have python >= 2.5. What does "/usr/bin/python --version" say?
