Problems with 2.3.13

On my Slackware Linux 11 partition I get an error message on ./configure of 2.3.13:
checking for PYGTK... no
configure: error:
*** Could not find PyGTK.
There is a workaround but that excludes python plugins. But that could cause problems in the future. I have downloaded and installed two different versions of pygtk (however you capitalize it.) The older one doesn't help and the newer one has a problem with a missing header or something. It is the old Russian doll trick--- you open up one doll and inside is another doll etc.

On a fresh install of Debian stable (sarge) there is the old problem of the missing perl XML module. I can probably solve that. But I am having monitor problems with Debian so I would rather stick with Slackware.

GIMP 2.3 is for testing only. So if you can't build pygimp, you won't be able to test any Python plug-ins. What's the big deal?

Perhaps I misunderstood. It was my imprssion that over time there would be a conversion from ScriptFu to Python. If there is a problem with 2.3.13 then the problem will persist with 2.4.x

There's no problem with Python in 2.3.13 (and no plans for a transition to Python). You are having a problem to build it on your box because of an incomplete pygtk installation. That's something that you will have to figure out yourself.
