.so, if im not mistaken is eather a linux shared library or not a mac shared library (someone correct me if im wrong) try making sure the python version you chose is the one for mac. the best supported python for mac is macpython<http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.1/>(distributes in a mac installer package) from the python website but another more linux like one would be the darwinports one or the fink one. Try looking here <http://wiki.python.org/moin/MacPython/PythonDistributionsForMac> http://wiki.python.org/moin/MacPython/PythonDistributionsForMac
