Summary0009897: FindPythonLibs.cmake fails to call python-config to find dependant libraries
DescriptionHi,

FindPythonLibs.cmake simply searches for a proper libpython<something> library. which seems to work most of the time but for example is not enough on opensuse 11.2 where linking with python results in
/usr/lib64/python2.6/config/libpython2.6.a(posixmodule.o): In function `posix_forkpty':
posixmodule.c:(.text.unlikely+0x22af): undefined reference to `forkpty'
/usr/lib64/python2.6/config/libpython2.6.a(posixmodule.o): In function `posix_openpty':
posixmodule.c:(.text.unlikely+0x22f8): undefined reference to `openpty'

OTOH python-config --libs advertises to use "-lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm -lpython2.6" as linker flags. There libutil is included, which contains the missing definitions.

so please query python-config (on unix?) instead of trying to be smart yourself. ;-)
