[Planetlab-devel] Unable to run gimport.py when building geniwrapper

Thu Jun 25 05:31:23 EDT 2009

As 0.2-5 might have been a bit off, I have snapshot a 0.2-6 tag from  
the current trunk, that should show up in the next nightly builds
also, once you've yum installed geniwrapper for the first time,  
upgrading to the actual trunk should be mostly a matter of installing  
the python files as appropriate, as long as the c code is not affected  
which has not happened for a while
