Surfing the web, it was suggested I upgrade. I'm currently at 1.6.1. So, ok... I pulled down the newest copy and tried to build it and I died with: make SUBDIR perl SUBDIR git_remote_helpers gmake[1]: /usr/bin/python: Command not found gmake[1]: *** [all] Error 127 gmake: *** [all] Error 2 I don't have python and even if I did, it would not be in /usr/bin. Does git now depend upon Python? That is such a lame language... I hope not. Is there any way to build git without python? If I have to get Python -- which Python. My biggest complaint with Python is it is so incompatible with itself. I can't find how to subscribe to this list so please remember to CC me on any replies. Thank you, Perry ``` ## Tomas Carnecky, 2011-02-28 19:23 Subject: Re: AIX problems Message-ID: <4D6BF625.70107@dbservice.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/4D6BF625.70107%40dbservice.com In-Reply-To: ``` On 2/28/11 8:16 PM, Perry Smith wrote: > make > SUBDIR perl > SUBDIR git_remote_helpers > gmake[1]: /usr/bin/python: Command not found > gmake[1]: *** [all] Error 127 > gmake: *** [all] Error 2 $ make NO_PYTHON=YesPlease tom ```
