Description Oldrich Jedlicka 2009-01-03 18:52:38 UTC

The problem can be seen namely for KDE4 python packages - kde-base/pykde4 for example. The eselected python version has no effect, cmake always uses the latest one.

The root cause is /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPythonInterp.cmake (part of dev-util/cmake) that looks namely for "python-2.6", then "python-2.5" and so on. It tries "python" interpreter at the last place, so the first found python version (the latest one) is always used instead of the eselected one.
