After much head scratching... managed to get it to work - here's the solution
for anyone else trying to solve the same problem in the future:
I needed to created a symbolic link named
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libowcapi.so
linked to
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libowcapi-2.8.so.15.0.0
I don't know if this is the right solution, but it seems to work!
I also struggled to work out what is expected in the connection argument in
python.
The following works for devices on i2c bus #1:
root = Connection ("--i2c=/dev/i2c-1:ALL")
Regards,
Kevin
