Idapython 64bit linux build issue: LONG_BIT definition appears wrong for platform about idapython

Do I understand correctly that you are trying to compile the plugin in a 64-bit 
host?
If that is the case, I am afraid it will not work. As far as I can see only the 
most essential
libraries are installed in their 32-bit form, at least on Debian Lenny. For 
example I did
not find any of the Python libraries. Trying to link to 64-bit Python libs will 
not do much
good as the IDA binary itself is 32-bit.
