[New-bugs-announce] [issue4670] setup.py exception when db_setup_debug = True

[Damien Miller]

New submission from Damien Miller <djmdjm at users.sourceforge.net>:

Hi,

I receive the following exception when trying to build with
db_setup_debug = True in setup.py. db_ver is not initialised in this
path, except by accident so I think the obvious solution of 

-    if db_setup_debug: print "db.h: unsupported version", db
_ver, "in", d
+    if db_setup_debug: print "db.h: no version in", d

Is the correct fix.

running build
running build_ext
