Ok, I got it to work, but it still makes no sense. I had to install libmcrypt with --prefix=/usr/local. If I do it with --prefix=/usr then for some reason ld won't find it when building python-mcrypt. Obviously I had to also change the include_dirs and library_dirs in the setup.py file. I thought I'd share that so hopefully someone can explain what that's all about. Thx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
