the trick with the link did not work either, cmake is evil enough to actually search for python binaries WITH the attached version number. BUT there is a variable that you can pass to autobuild, to pass it on to cmake, that contains a list of the version numbers to search for... -DPython_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS:STRING="2.7 2.6 2.5 2.4 2.3 2.2 2.1 2.0" with this autobuild does not find python3 binaries, and all is well.
