First, we're going further, so not bad ! Besides, what machine are you
using ? 64bits ? I'm considering putting a all-in-one tar file with
binaries on the V_Sim website, including the ABINIT plug-in.

It's for the Python bindings. It's not required for the plug-in. If you
want to indeed compile them, you need to install on your machine the
development files of python and numarray (or scipython).

These files are indeed the one required for V_Sim.

I'm suprised at that point that it did not compile. Can you send me the
config.log file generated by the configure. It contains why the
configure put "no" for the ABINIT plug-in.

Besides, I just think that you need to specify the fortran compiler to
V_Sim configure. It should be gfortran by default but may be not. So
add a FC=gfortran argument to the configure line of V_Sim.
