I got it working on MacOSX under Mono. I'm pretty sure the clr.pyd is only for 
Windows. I think you just need the Python.Runtime.dll, the 
Python.Runtime.dll.config, and the clr.so in the site-packages folder.

Subject: [Python.NET] path question: clr.so being picky about paths

In the readme, it says that "python for .net uses the pythonpath 
(sys.path) to look for assemblies to load, in addition to the usual 
application base and the gac.

Unfortunately at the moment the assembly I'm trying to load is... clr.pyd.

If I run python (ubuntu, mono, rebuilt python 2.5.2 with 
--enable-shared) from a directory where clr.pyd and Python.Runtime.dll 
reside, with clr.so in the lib/python2.5/site-packages folder... 
everything works.  I can import clr and System.Drawing and make a 
System.Drawing.Point instance.

If I run python from a directory without these libraries, in particular 
if I'm in my home folder somewhere and clr.pyd and Python.Runtime.dll 
are in the lib/python2.5/site-packages folder where I want them... 
import clr gives me an error trying to load some unspecified module (I 
suspect clr.pyd).

Am I supposed to set some path or other for mono in contravention of the 
docs?  I suspect that either clr.so can't find mono, or mono is being 
loaded and then can't find clr.pyd.

I will continue to fiddle with this, probably Friday, if I don't get a 
response, but it seems like there's probably a simple answer that I'm 
overlooking.  Setting MONO_PATH to my site-packages folder (the variable 
was unbound before) didn't fix it.
