Hello list, I encountered a problem with the Windows packaging of gPodder[1] using msys2:
basic libraries (zlib, openssl) depended upon by python platform-specific modules are loaded preferably : 1. from lib-dynload (where they are not) 2. from the Windows directory (can be any version) 3. from the binary directory, next to gpodder.exe (where they are) So an old zlib1.dll installed by another application in c:\Windows was loaded, incompatible with libpng and gPodder couldn't start. I don't know what's the best approach to solve it: - copy those libraries to lib\pythonxx\lib-dynload (works) - preload them in my main script before they are loaded by the module (works) - patch something in python (dynload_win.c ?) to search first in the executable directory (not tried) Please can you provide me with insight on this? Details in the issue: [1] Thanks, [1] https://github.com/gpodder/gpodder/issues/478
