Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: splatd
Splatd will not start due to a problem with the installation of python-
ldap. There is, basically a conflict between the python-ldap for
python2.4 and for python2.5. I would have filed this under python-ldap,
but there was not bug option under that package :S.
Here's what happens:
$ splatd
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/splatd", line 58, in ?
import getopt, ldap, time
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ldap/__init__.py", line 23, in ?
from _ldap import *
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_ldap.so: undefined symbol:
_PyArg_ParseTuple_SizeT
It's just loading the wrong .so (needs the python2.4 one, but it's
taking the python2.5 one).
Here's how I hacked around it:
1) Change the first line in /usr/sbin/splatd to #!/usr/bin/python to let it
start with python2.5 instead of python2.4
2) Download and install ZConfig (to resolve a missing dependency) from
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ZConfig/2.5
Then it works.
I'll try to hunt down the python-ldap folks, as this would resolve the
issue, but I just wanted to put a bug entry up here in case someone else
is looking to resolve this problem.
