Hi all,
Just updated basemap from 0.9.4 to 0.9.8 on Mandriva Linux 2008. I also
installed basemap-data-fullres-0.9.7. I've noticed there's a couple of
recent posts about problems (on Macs) with 0.9.8, the solution being to
install setuptools until 0.9.9 comes along; the problem I have is similar to
the posts but not the same, so I'd like to check here before proceeding with
setuptools.
I installed the included geos-2.2.3, then basemap-0.9.8, then
basemap-data-fullres-0.9.7. However when I now import basemap I get:
In [1]: from matplotlib.toolkits.basemap import Basemap

Yet the file, in fact a link, libgeos_c.so.1, does exist at the location
(/usr/local/lib) where it is supposed to be:

I'd appreciate any help with this.
Thanks, Evan
