Can't ./configure latest git

Can't ./configure latest git

I just cloned Xen from git, but it won't configure. I have both versions of
Python installed, but it tries to use 3 to run 2 code:

    checking for inttypes.h... yes
    checking for stdint.h... yes
    checking for unistd.h... yes
      File "<string>", line 1
        import distutils.sysconfig;     print
distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var("VERSION")
                                                      ^
    SyntaxError: invalid syntax
    checking for python-config... /usr/bin/python-config
    checking Python.h usability... yes
    checking Python.h presence... yes
    checking for Python.h... yes

How do I fix this?

Worked around with the following:

 ~git/xen   master ± git diff
diff --git a/tools/configure b/tools/configure
index 7a57e6562d..874498ad80 100755
--- a/tools/configure
+++ b/tools/configure
@@ -6859,7 +6859,7 @@ if echo "$PYTHON" | grep -q "^/"; then :
     PYTHON=`basename $PYTHONPATH`

 elif test -z "$PYTHON"; then :
-  PYTHON="python"
+  PYTHON="python2"
 else
   as_fn_error $? "PYTHON specified, but is not an absolute path" "$LINENO"
5
 fi

Not sure if this is ideal.

In addition, I had to grep -r -l '$(PYTHON)' * | xargs sed -i
's!$(PYTHON)!/usr/bin/python2!g' because I couldn't figure out where
$(PYTHON) was set. At first I thought it was tools/get-fields.sh but
setting it there didn't fix it.

Or better:
./configure PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2
make PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2

Ah, that makes more sense. Another problem I had when trying to compile was
I got a permission denied error on xen-setup, which I fixed by making as
root (in a chroot of course). Was there a better way to do that?

This sound like an weird issue in your environnement. And I don't see
how been root would affect permission of xen-setup. Is this
tools/qemu-xen-traditional-dir/xen-setup ?

What is the error message?

I just realized I misread the error message. I fixed the environment and
got it working.
