Hello!

I am very excited to try using MEEP within python (especially for use with
3D geometry files), but have not had much success building
python-meep.1.3.2. I suspect this has more to do with how my system is set
up than with the package itself, but perhaps one of you can see where I've
gone wrong. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 with python2.6.5, libmeep - Meep version
1.1.1, and swig 2.0.0. The output of sudo ./make appears below:

I see no Python.h file is found, and also what appear to be unicode issues
with python. Is this the source of all my woes? If so, how do I fix it?
Anything else I need to fix/change? Any pointers or advice would be most
appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul Robinson
