On Ubuntu and other Linux distros you must run ldconfig any time you install or change a shared library. Otherwise the dynamic linker won't be able to locate the shared library. I'm able to confirm that python3.8 does not work prior to calling, but works after calling ldconfig. # ./configure --enable-shared # make # make install # python3.8 python3.8: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.8.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory # ldconfig # python3.8 Python 3.8.0 (default, Dec 9 2019, 16:36:58) [GCC 7.4.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed type: crash -> resource usage _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38987> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
