Thomas Heller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:
To be honest, I do not understand this request and the discussion.
ctypes.util.find_library(), as dcumented, is supposed to simulate what
the linker does: find the name of a shared library. For example,
it returns 'libc.so.6' when called as ctypes.util.find_library('c').
AFAIK (and I don't know very much about posix shared libs or linkers)
the linker does not pay attention to (DY)LD_LIBRARY_PATH env var.
dlopen(shared-lib-name) does use this env vars, but this behaviour is
already built into dlopen.
