Python Error
Hi,
I juts tried to load the python module instead of using c as a way to
program an interface with the client. I went into python and typed:
import pg
and I got:
/usr/libexec/ld.so: python: libpq-so.3.0: No such file or directory.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
-Dan
sounds like you're missing a symlink. I don't know enough to fix the problem but a symlink fixed a similar problem for me pertaining to the same file.
In my case it was because I didn't install crypto but was trying to work with pgsql and ssl.

It's also possible that you don't have the postgresql development package
installed, although normally you couldn't build or install PyGreSQL without
those development libraries.

Can you be more specific about the "postgresql development package"?
Just to make sure I got everything I downloaded postgresql, base, opts,
test, docs, and whatever else was in the ftp dir. Do I need to do a
seperate ./configure && make?
Thanks,

Do you have that file or anything like it? I have libpq.so.2.0. Note that if
you only have libpq.so you may need to run ldconfig (on linux anyway) to get
the symlinks created. If it's still not there, you probably don't have the
library at all.

I just noticed something form your original email:
your computer is looking for the filename: libpq-so.3.0
my computer has the filename: libpq.so.3.0
Something is definately wrong there. Could you list the version numbers of
postgresql and python that you're using?
