Hi,

While trying to install pytables on ubuntu I run into a strange (for
me) problem. I followed the instructions in the README, and indeed
with the PYTHONPATH with . I can run the test succesfully in ipython
in ~/build/tables. However, if I run ipthon in another directory,
e.g., ~/build/ and try to import pytables in another directory I get
the error:

ImportError: libhdf5-1.6.6.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory

Of course I ran sudo python setup.py install but to no avail.

There is some other strange problem too.  To install tables I used pip
install -U tables. This comes a long way in the right direction, but
fails to completely compile tables. For this it is necessary to enter
the build/tables directory and run python setup.py install. Why is
that?

Thanks in advance for any hint.

Nicky
