I tried your suggestions but it leads to the same error message (using g++ -shared foo.cpp -o foo.so -I /usr/include/python2.6 -lpython2.6 -lboost_python). Could there be something wrong with the installation? In the meantime I tried it on an OSX machine, installed boost 1.45 by hand (using bjam --with-python). The error is exactly the same. I suppose the code should be fine as its from the docs. Am I missing an important step?
