I suspect this isn't specifically a Python question, but I encountered it with Python so I thought I'd ask here.
I'm running Linux (Fedora 2), and just downloaded the Python 2.4 kit. I did the following from my user account: ./configure --prefix=/some/private/dir --enable-shared make make test # all was okay make install
Now, when I try to run this I get the following error: python: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.4.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This library is in /some/private/dir/lib, but that directory is not being searched.
So, I have these questions: - Can I get Python to search /some/private/dir/lib for library files? - Will sys.path be okay? How can I make it okay? - Is there anything else I need to worry about?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Dan
