@@ -14,6 +14,19 @@ the XML-XCB protocol descriptions, client-side support for a new extension requires only an XML description of the extension, and not a single line of code. +Python libraries: xcb-proto also contains language-independent Python +libraries that are used to parse an XML description and create objects +used by Python code generators in individual language bindings. These +libraries are installed into $(prefix)/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages. If +this location is not on your system's Python path, scripts that import +them will fail with import errors. In this case you must add the +install location to your Python path by creating a file with a `.pth' +extension in a directory that _is_ on the Python path, and put the +path to the install location in that file. For example, on my system +there is a file named 'local.pth' in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages, +which contains '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages'. Note that +this is only necessary on machines where XCB is being built. + Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker, at: |
