I think the extension module should be found. However, an extension module must satify further conditions (apart from being found), e.g. it must contain a public initialization function with a name derived from the module name (and dependent on the major Python version). Maybe, your so does not fulfill one of those conditions? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
