I have /bin/sh poiting to /bin/dash instead on /bin/bash. dash is supposed to be posix compatible and smaller than bash but it seems to conflict in some way with the python script. With /bin/bash the script called with os.system in the check_library function works well. It returns 32512 as exit code if the executable is not found. With dash, os.system returns 0 and the code does not check the pkg-config branch.
If I call os.system with /bin/dash and this string the exit code is ok and the script semms to work. "%s-config --version 2>/dev/null >/dev/null" with the one that it's in the code, dash exits with 0. "%s-config --version &>/dev/null" The construction &>/dev/null seems a bash-ism. I think you should change the strings --
