Bug Description

I am trying to compile latest version of compiz (which is 0.9.13.0 at the moment) from the sources.
I downloaded http://launchpad.net/compiz/0.9.13/0.9.13.0/+download/compiz-0.9.13.0.tar.bz2
Unpacked and trying to follow the installation guide http://wiki.compiz.org/Installation/Development
```
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
```

cmake command fails with the following error message:
```
  File "<string>", line 1
    import sys; print str (sys.version_info[0]) + '.' + str (sys.version_info[1])
```
Which is strange - looks like it tries to run python2 code with python3 interpreter. I have both python2 and python3 installed on my machine.

And also the following at the end
```
CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
PYTHON_LIBRARY_LOCAL
    linked by target "compizconfig_python_module" in directory /tmp/compiz-0.9.13.0/compizconfig/compizconfig-python
```
