Description of problem:
$ python
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Aug 21 2009, 12:22:21) 
[GCC 4.4.1 20090818 (Red Hat 4.4.1-6)] on linux2

>>> import fontforge
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
SystemError: Missing library: libfontforge
>>> 

Fontforge's Python module expects a libfontforge.so file, but fontforge only
provides libfontforge.so.1 and libfontforge.so.1.0.0.  Creating a symlink
libfontforge.so -> libfontforge.so.1 works.  Either fontforge should include
the symlink or the fontforge Python module should use the specific symlink.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontforge-20090622-2.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. python
2. import fontforge
3.

Actual results:
Traceback

Expected results:
Successful import
