I'm trying to build gnome15 for Linux Mint 17.1.
The current zipped source on github, which expands in directory gnome15-master, has no configure, just configure.ac. So I'm using a copy from last year but its configure is having a problem with python. It stops with:
Code:
checking for the distutils Python package... yes
checking for Python include path... -I/usr/include/python2.7
checking for Python library path... -L/usr/lib -lpython2.7
checking for Python site-packages path... /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
checking python extra libraries... -L/usr/lib -lz -lpthread -ldl -lutil
checking python extra linking flags... -Xlinker -export-dynamic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
checking consistency of all components of python development environment... no
configure: error: in `/devel/gnome15-0.9.8-arch':
configure: error:
Could not link test program to Python. Maybe the main Python library has been
installed in some non-standard library path. If so, pass it to configure,
via the LDFLAGS environment variable.
Example: ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/non-standard-path/python/lib"
============================================================================
ERROR!
You probably have to install the development version of the Python package
for your distribution. The exact name of this package varies among them.

I tried using 'set -x' in configure in the hope that it would give me an explicit command that would tell me what to look for, but no such luck. Too much stuff is in variables.
gnome15 supports the Logitech G series gaming keyboards. I looked in the normal repos but only the g15daemon and g15macro components for my keyboard (G510s) are present. Not enough. I tried to access the pps:
Code:
# add-apt-repository ppa:tanktarta/gnome15
Cannot add PPA: 'No JSON object could be decoded'.
Is there other support for the G510s?
Thanks
