Yes. This is why (at least in Python 3.2) it must be in the right path (subdirectory), see above. > freeze does > support adding the external library statically, but it's not > easy. Unfortunately, Debian/Ubuntu does not deliver a static version of psycopg2. So I'd like to use the dynamic version. This is definitively possible with Python 3.2 x86, again, see above. > The question I raised was whether running "hello" will > fail to import the shared library _pyscopg2*.so or not. That's a good question. I think so, but how can I test that? At least the (only) way in Python 3.2 does not work any more. Even with Python 3.2 there must be a link in the subdirectory as shown above. It is not enough to have it only in the usual installation directory /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/psycopg2/_psycopg.xxx.so Even any set LD_LIBRARY_PATH is ignored, like also putting it in /usr/lib as far as I can see. > This ticket is about getting freeze working again for > Python 3.x Right. So we should test the library feature which worked somehow magically in Python 3.2. Then we will see if it is a bug. My statement is that it is a bug.
