erm, reading the bug comments now i understand we do not compile
python files at all, right? p

Yes, I have not found a better way, but nobody told me it is wrong to do that.

Now that I think of it, we still install byte-compiled files for lyx2lyx and automake does not complain... I think I know what happens: for some reason, automake complained about configure.py because we used pkgdata_PYTHON, and someone thought it was neat to disable this.

However, if we do
  foodir=$(pkgdatadir)
  foo_PYTHON = configure.py
I suspect that the error goes away (I do not have the right automake version to test that).

Where do we go from there?

1/ revert the python patch and use the workaround described above to calm automake. This means that we continue to install pyo/pyc files and we do not try to fix #6080

2/ apply the change to lyx2lyx too, meaning that #6080 is solved for good, but we might loose some goodness from compiled files.

Will a python guru show up (José!) and tell us the Only Right Way ?
