[Python.NET] building on linux, mono 2.8.1

[Laszlo Sebo]

Hi there, I've been trying to get Python.Net working for the last couple weeks on linux (using rev 110), and so far i haven't had much luck. Maybe i am using libraries that are not yet supported, so any help would be appreciated. I am using centOS 5.5, and python 2.5.1 64bit. I am using the latest (2.8.1) version of mono. To get python.net to build, i had to modify a couple of files, as by default it wouldn't build. First I had to build and install  glib (2.26.1), then do the following: Add these lines to the setup.py (most likely my glib installation wasn't doing its setup properly) kw["include_dirs"].append('/usr/local/include/glib-2.0') kw["include_dirs"].append('/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include') Then edit the pynetclr.h file and add this line: #include <gmodule.h> Then edit the makefile for monoclr: add include files to PY_CFLAGS variable: -I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include MONO_LIBS = $(shell pkg-config --libs mono-2) MONO_CFLAGS = $(shell pkg-config --cflags mono-2) add clrpython.o to clr.so make: -dynamiclib pynetinit.o clrmod.o clrpython.o -o clr.so remove -lpython from the PY_LIBS listing After this everything built without errors. However... the clr.so files don't quite work :) I get 3 behaviours: if i use the clr.so in the root folder: import clr; import System; => segmentation fault if i use the clr.so in the monoclr folder: ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/clr.so: cannot dynamically load executable if i use the clr.so in the root folder, and also copy the libpython2.5.so in the site-packages folder: import clr => segmentation fault Not sure what i'm doing wrong to be honest. I'll try to roll back mono a couple versions, and try that (2.4.3 maybe). I have a feeling i am missing something very obvious here... Any pointers would be appreciated! cheers, laszlo sebo
