Good, one drawback of the auto-generation used to build bigworld was that
there were no large forests or deserts (just mountain ranges and lakes).
This is something that should be fixed over time by mapmakers.  One thing,
did you backfill in the elevation?  There are a couple automated options to
do this now and I think that until we can figure out a better way to do
weather we should try to keep the elevation information as much as possible.

     It shouldn't, where does SuSE put the Python development stuff?  I know some
systems do not install the Python header file unles you install the dev
package...

There is a bug in the 1.5.0 crossfire configure script where the search  for
the Python.h is (the path it follows is  /usrlocal/ when it should be
/usr/local) but this is fixed in CVS.  WHere does SuSe put python.h - maybe
if it is different you can let us know and we can update the configure
script to detect it (well maybe not me unless it is a simple hack)...

do you have python development installed?  If it is really different
location or version of python there is also a --with prefix to point to your
Python.h  '--with-includes=I<path to your desired python include files>
