  Well I came to the same conclusion but could not understand why,
I do have python and all the devel stuff on that box, it built the
python rpm, etc... fine, i have really no warning.
  I may have tweaked something at some point as i was porting all the
python scripts to python3 for libxml2 last month, but the setup on my
Fedora17 machine is really based on python2, i'm a bit puzzled...

  Agreed the EXTRA_DIST += sanitytest.py ought to go outside the
HAVE_PYTHON conditional, I would even argue this should go to
the initial set of files.
