graphics/mapserver Python mapscript fails

[Frank Broniewski]

Hi,

When I run `make` in the graphics/mapserver dir and examine the work
directory I notice that there is indeed a mapscript/python subfolder
including a setup.py. Unfortunately running
# python setup.py sdist
to create an egg it fails, notifying me that:
# python setup.py sdist
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 215, in <module>
    mapserver_version = get_config('version',
config='../../mapserver-config')
  File "setup.py", line 105, in get_config
    v = read_mapscriptvars()
  File "setup.py", line 79, in read_mapscriptvars
    raise IOError, '%s. %s' % (e, "Has MapServer been made?")
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '../../mapscriptvars'. Has
MapServer been made?

Does  this help?
