Re: [pygame] Pygame with changed location of SDL

2017-11-20 Thread Thomas Kluyver
I think it should respect standard mechanisms like the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable.

There are also ways to edit the binary to modify where it looks for
libraries: we do this in order to bundle libraries like SDL into the Linux
wheel packages. But I don't think this kind of trick should be necessary
for what you describe.

[pygame] Pygame with changed location of SDL

Hello Dear Community,

I am trying to bring pygame to a system which sadly has a ro system 
partition. To be precise its Libreelec which is a just enough OS for the 
Homecinema Software Kodi. So due to it's limitations you can't install 
anything into /usr/ or similir folders. But you can Install addons, which 
also are able to contain binaries and libraries. So id like to know if 
there is a way to change, where pygame is looking for the SDL libraries. 

Thank you very much
