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
