[omniORB] Building OmniOrb 3.04 on HPUX version 11.0

[Thorne, Adrian]

Im having a spot of bother trying to build OmniOrb 3.04 on an HPUX 11.0
machine. 
I am using Python 2.1, and the aCC C++ compiler. I have checked that all the
config 
files are set up correctly and that my PATHS are all correct.

The problem seems to be in building the omniidl modules. During the build of
these 
modules I get the following output:

making export in src/tool/omniidl/cxx...
make[3]: Entering directory
`/home/adrian/download/omni/src/tool/omniidl/cxx'
../../../../bin/hppa_hpux_11.00/omkdepend -D__cplusplus

idlpython.cc: 308: #    error "omniidl requires Python 1.5.2 or higher"
/home/adrian/download/omni/src/tool/omniidl/cxx/cccp

and then when we get down to compiling Naming.idl which I think is the first
time the build process trys to use omniidl we get the following:

../../../bin/hppa_hpux_11.00/omniidl -bcxx -Wba -p../../../src/lib/omniORB2
-ComniORB3 ../../../idl/Naming.idl


omniidl: ERROR!

omniidl: Could not open IDL compiler module _omniidlmodule.so
omniidl: Please make sure it is in directory
/home/adrian/download/omni/lib/hppa_hpux_11.00
omniidl: (or set the PYTHONPATH environment variable)

omniidl: (The error was `Failed to load
/home/adrian/download/omni/lib/hppa_hpux_11.00/_omniidlmodule.sl')


make[2]: *** [omniORB3/Naming.hh] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/adrian/download/omni/src/lib/omniORB2'
make[1]: *** [export] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/adrian/download/omni/src/lib'
make: *** [export] Error 1

For HPUX 11.0 there is no such thing as _omniidlmodule.so (I have compared
this with the omniOrb3.03 build) and I have set PYTHONPATH to 
point to my python2.1 interpreter. (I dont have omnipython)

Can anyone help with this one?
