Makefile python error

[flungo]

Hi,

I had some problem when executing "sudo make install". The error I got was:

echo "from git import __version__\nfrom distutils.version import LooseVersion\nif LooseVersion(__version__) < '0.3.0':\n\traise ImportError('gitpython 0.3.x required.')" | python
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    from git import __version__\nfrom distutils.version import LooseVersion\nif LooseVersion(__version__) < '0.3.0':\n\traise ImportError('gitpython 0.3.x required.')
                                                                                                                                                                     ^
SyntaxError: unexpected character after line continuation character

I fixed this by creating a gitpython-check.py file with:

from git import __version__
from distutils.version import LooseVersion

if LooseVersion(__version__) < '0.3.0':
    raise ImportError('gitpython 0.3.x required.')

And replacing the line on the make file with:

python gitpython-check.py

Not sure if this was a bug, as issue with my machine or something I did wrong?
