I've got 10.5.1 of Leopard (with Developer tools, obviously :) and I  
can compile clucene and sword just fine. I put it in /usr/local/sword

Then I went into the bindings/swig/ directory, read the README,  
followed the steps therein and got a few errors:

+-( ~/src/sword-1.5.10/bindings/swig/package ):> ./autogen.sh
*** copying swig files
*** Recreating aclocal.m4
aclocal
zlib.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AC_FIND_ZLIB
zlib.m4:4:   run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
zlib.m4:4:   or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
*** Recreating configure
*** Recreating the Makefile.in files

So I ran configure, which seemed to be mostly okay with the setup:

Then I ran "make python_make" and got this:

Any ideas? It's really not there:

+-( ~/src/sword-1.5.10/bindings/swig/package/python ):> find .
.
./build
./build/temp.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5
./setup.py


Thanks!
