You can't, unless the library is a python extension. There are python bindings for numereous libraries, you can look for one in the cheeseshop (http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi) or using google (not everything is listed in the cheeseshop). You can also look at http://www.pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/ index.html to see if the library you want to use is already available in a precompiled form.
