-------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> [python] pip installed binding fails to find correct libqpid-proton.so
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PROTON-958
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-958
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: python-binding
> Affects Versions: 0.9.1
> Reporter: Ken Giusti
> Assignee: Ken Giusti
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 0.10
>
>
> The latest versions of pip keeps a cache of downloaded packages. It also
> caches the results of any extensions built for those packages. When a user
> tries to re-install (or install in a different virtualenv) a previously build
> package, the pre-built package is pulled from the cache and plopped into
> place.
> Which is all great and fast...
> ... unless your extension also builds a shared library (libqpid-proton) and
> sets its RPATH to it.
> This ends up with a cached _cproton.so with a RPATH pointing to the directory
> where the libqpid-proton.so was installed. Woe be you if that was a
> virtualenv that you deleted (or updated).
> This results in either "libqpid-proton.so not found" errors when importing
> the bindings, or symbol mismatches if the library was overwritten.
