You are right:

Python 2.2.3 (#1, Aug 8 2003, 08:44:02)
[GCC 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-13)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

OK then I have to reformulate my question. :)
In my script I have a line with
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]='/path/Linux/rh_linux'
but this line didn't work.
But when I set this environment variable in Linux shell it works. Here
is a small example.
> python shrink_bs_070226.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "shrink_bs_070226.py", line 25, in ?
from qt import *
File "/path/Linux/python/rh_linux/lib/python2.2/site-packages/
qt.py", line 46, in ?
import libsip
ImportError: libadamsqt.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
> setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /path/Linux/rh_linux
> python shrink_bs_070226.py
Starting Script "Shrinker" ....
Why it's not working in script with command
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"]='/path/Linux/rh_linux'
but in shell it works?
I hope it's understandable. :)
Thanks,
