+It really looks as if the python path was not found ... (configure looks
+for python path with this list : python2 python2.5 python2.4 python2.3
+python2.2 python2.1 python2.0 python1.6 python1.5)
+The python version in mageia is 2.7 !!!
+
+if no python path is found configure may disable pylash building
+
+You may look in the log and try to find :
+build_pylash="disabled"
+It may be disabled without warning !!! as it doesn't prevent from
+building the other components
+but when creating the rpm python-lash you have no file to put into it
+
+Suppressing the line :
+-%{python_sitelib}/*
+in the spec file hides the symptom and provides an empty and useless rpm
+
+That's my hypothesis but I'm not very able !
+Maybe you may ask to an old packager !!!
