Hi all, Not sure where to send this - perhaps a more development oriented list?
Anyway, the issue is about python-ctypes, the library for easy access to shared libraries from python. This includes a utility class for finding the REAL name of a library, i.e. getting from GL to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 This code is found here: /usr/lib/python2.5/ctypes/util.py (assuming python-ctypes is installed) Now this relies in turn on several external tools for finding the library (see [1]), in particular ldconfig, gcc and objdump. Now ldconfig we have by default, gcc we do not want to install and objdump is in the binutils package. Now the binutils package only includes weird named binaries for objdump, i.e. /usr/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objdump - and this is not found by ctypes... How do we fix this? Can binutils not ship with a /usr/bin/objdump symlinked to /usr/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objdump? A semi-related question : Say I've written a new .bb file for python-opengl. How can I most easily get this put into openembedded?
