The dll you are looking for is here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin32/file-4.21-bin.zip?modtime=1180175868&big_mirror=1 The .dll.a file you mention is just a linker stub for when you want to compile against it (as you are doing when building python-magic). The magic1.dll file in the file-4.21-bin.zip package should be placed anywhere in the path. Since you'll be using it with python, you could probably stick it in the python25/bin folder (where ever your python system is installed). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
