For me, on 64 bit Debian, after $sudo scons install, this happens: ---------------------- chuckk@unclejesse:~$ python Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Aug 6 2008, 09:17:29) [GCC 4.3.1] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import csnd Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/usr/lib/python2.5/csnd.py", line 7, in import _csnd ImportError: libcsnd.so.5.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ------------------------ $ldd _csnd.so returns, among other normal things: libcsnd.so.5.2 => not found But libcsnd.so.5.2 resides in /usr/local/lib I tried scons clean and rebuilding, and even deleting the directory and untarring the source again, since that solved it last time (I believe some files were not cleaned up after I tried a few configurations that failed due to dependencies I hadn't worked out), but too bad, so sad, it doesn't appear to have fixed it. I did delete all installed files before rebuilding, by the way. Any ideas? -Chuckk -- http://www.badmuthahubbard.com
