With pylibmount recently being merged into git, some folks might have trouble building from HEAD if their /usr/bin/python points to a version python>=3.0. While the end goal (after discussion with Karel) seems to be that we should be able to build this for both python2 and python3, you can work around the build failure for now by simply passing --with-python=/usr/bin/python2 (or --without-python if you don't care for the new module). Cheers, Dave
