I'm trying to get Inline::Python working on OSX 10.3. I have installed
the framework build of 2.4.1 and am able to use it, run scripts, etc.
Inline seemd to install fine (I didn't think to test Inline::C before
installing Inline::Python). When I installed Inline::Python, however,
it asked me:
> $ perl Makefile.PL
> Found these python executables on your PATH:
> 1. /usr/local/bin/python
> 2. /usr/bin/python

Inline::Python needs to link against it to use Python.

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/Python

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/include/python2.4/
I've asked on the PythonMac-SIG list, and the answer there was to create
symlinks from the above files to more typical places:
$ sudo ln -s
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/include/python2.4
/usr/local/include/python2.4
$ sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/Python
/usr/local/lib/libpython2.4.dylib
However, that didn't change the behavior I am seeing (below). I've
tried fiddling with the things I gave it, and the include dir seems to
be correct, but when I run something that uses Inline, I get the following:
> $ perl test.pl Can't make loaded symbols global on this platform
while loading /Library/Perl//darwin/auto/Inline/Python/Python.bundle at
/Library/Perl//darwin/DynaLoader.pm line 229.

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
Thanks for any input,
Eli
