Unable to get WAF to run

I am trying to build the Monotooth library on Ubuntu and there is a native component which needs to be compiled. The distro from github has a开发者_高级运维 wscript file and requires WAF to build. However, whenever I try to execute waf configure I get:

Checking for program gcc                 : ok /usr/bin/gcc
Checking for program cpp                 : ok /usr/bin/cpp
Checking for program ar                  : ok /usr/bin/ar
Checking for program ranlib              : ok /usr/bin/ranlib
 error: No such method 'create_library_configurator'

I don't know python and I'm not sure what this is actually telling me. Am I missing a library (module) or what?

I found that I needed to use a version of waf from http://waf.googlecode.com/files/waf-1.3.2.tar.bz2

I had version 1.5.9 which must have deprecated the create_library_configurator method.
