A little more information about your problem here which I mean in the
text above. You have only python3 installed and no python2. Configure
checks for python2.7, python2.6 and python binaries in your PATH.

This is priority list, first try match to python2.7 ... and so on until
python. Is your python now a python in version three and there is no
python2.7 and python2.6 -> test crashs.

That's my theory for now.
