Tim Potter 71a22f5206 r4982: Start to move swig dependencies into new build system. Unfortunately
I can only get something useful happening by using the BINARY keyword
as nothing else seems to generate dependency lists that can be used
when linking the swig shared libraries.  Anyway this is a lot nicer
than having lots of junk in makefile.pm.

README for Samba SWIG Python extensions
---------------------------------------

Instructions for building:

1. Run configure with the --with-python option to enable python
   extensions. 

2. Edit the script/build_idl.sh script to pass the --swig option to
   pidl.  Here's a patch:

3. Run 'make idl_full swig' to build extensions.

4. At some stage there will be a proper system for installing the
   extensions, but right now it's easier to run them in place.  Set
   your PYTHONPATH to include the modules.  From the Samba source
   directory, run:

   export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/scripting/swig

Now you can go nuts and use the extensions.  Check the
scripting/swig/torture directory for a testsuite.  There will
hopefully be a bunch of usage examples somewhere.
