Hello!!

I need python igraph to run trans ABySS. I am installing it on a cluster
where I dont have root access.
I tried to do as follows

python setup.py install --user
But I got this error

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libxml2.a(entities.o): relocation R_X86_64_32
against `.text' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile
with -fPIC
/usr/lib64/libxml2.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

I know from here
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/igraph-help/2014-05/msg00045.html that
the static version of libxml2 on my system was not compiled with the -fPIC
option enabled, so it cannot be linked to a dynamic library. The problem is
I cannot do what they suggest because I do not have root privileges.
I tried to compile libxml2 with -fPIC option eneabled on my home directory
and add it to my PATH but I get the same error. I dont know haw to make it
use the libxml2 installed in my home directory.
Is it possible? Is there any other way?

Thank you for your time
Cheers

J. Manuel
