Failed to make my own Vim.

I'd like to compile my own Vim, but `make` failed with the following error message:

Seems something wrong with python. It compiles without `--enable-pythoninterp`. Is this a bug in python? Is there a workaround?

Why are you trying to build it by hand? Also, what version are you trying to build?

7.3 builds just fine with the PKGBUILD in abs, you can easily add +python and whatever you want to it and makepkg --pkg vim

Also, if you have X installed on your box, then just install the gvim package, it includes a vim binary built with all the fancy stuff enabled.

I'd like to build it with my own patch to make middle-clicking on a tab close the tab, and to round up the number of lines and columns when the window size changes. I'm using the latest version (7.3 with 1-6 patches, 7 and 8 just released so I did not include them).

And also, though I'd like to use gvim, I don't like the toolbar. I am also glad to see my nick appears in the output of :ver.

Hi there. I just retried to build my vim and it succeeded. What I did is `make clean`, `make distclean` and remove some files under src/auto, and then the error is gone!

Always make clean before you rebuild

But anyway, you really should be using abs, no reason not to.

Yes, abs is great, and I am learning how to use it.
