Hi, I just installed newest pygen and trying to install ns-3-dev.
However the ./waf configure rejects new pygen:


Checking for pybindgen version                          : not found 
pybindgen (found 0.12.0), (need 0.11.0.697)

Hi,

Look at ns-3-allinone (see http://www.nsnam.org/docs/tutorial/tutorial_12.html) to download right version of packages (pybindgen, nsc) and ns-3.

ns-3 looks for an _exact_ version of pybindgen to avoid potential problems (long story).  If you use the download.py script in ns-3-allinone it should take care of fetching the right pybindgen version for you, so you needn't worry.

Although in this case version 0.11.0.697 is basically the same code as 0.12.0 official release.  I think I'll switch ns-3-dev to require the 0.12.0 official release, but not because it is really needed, only because it's a "rounder" version number :-)
