It says this in README.txt:

"
If you do not have Autoconf support on your platform, you must install
the omniORBpy source in the $TOP/src/lib directory of a working
omniORB 4.1 tree. Then, in the $TOP/src/lib/omniORBpy directory,
simply do a gnumake export.

Yes, you should do make export in the omniORBpy directory, in the same
tree you set up for building omniORB. What goes wrong when you do?  The
same cl issue, or did you fix that?

Well, you can, but that's not what you want because the omniORB minimal
Python is an ancient Python 1.5.2.

Cheers,

Duncan.
