The issue stems from libboost_python.so not being linked as part of the _PythonMagick.so build process. Starting Python like:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libboost_python.so python Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:58:18) [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import PythonMagick >>> works fine. The configure script seems to skip adding -lboost_python to the LDFLAGS because when checking for libboost_python, the test program that it compiles doesn't include -lpython2.6 -- and libboost_python doesn't link to libpython2.6 already. So lots of undefined symbols, the test program fails, and the configure script decides libboost_python doesn't exist. (But it's a twisty maze of buildscripts and so I ultimately didn't figure out what magic line needed changed...) -- Broken package https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345208 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
