Compiling hostpython doesn't work

As you can see below there is a problem while configuring the hostpython build:

UPDATE: does not happen when -m "pil kivy" is set.
Is pil needed to build hostpython?

[tshirtman]

It shouldn't, and the error seemed to be with ccache failing to run, not sure why it would be different with pil compiling before…

[thopiekar]

Strange.. Started the process again without pil and it works -.-'
Seems that this issue can be closed ;)

However it would be interesting why it wasn't working fine before..
