The problem is that you would need to do this check at runtime, every time you load up the library - otherwise, what happens if the user upgrades their installed copy of liblzma? And we can't expect users to have the liblzma headers installed, so we'd have to try and figure out whether the library was ABI-compatible from the shared object alone; I doubt that this is even possible. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
