Re: Installing PL/Python (progress!)

Thanks for the response! We have been involved in production 'issues'
today, sorry I didn't get back on this sooner (plus we are on Hawaiian
time). (3 hours later - the first response bounced at Verizon's outgoing
mail server, for some reason).

'openpty' is a function defined in a Python library module 'pty'. I'm
not sure how the load mechanism would work, I guess it's time for me to
'use the source!'?

BTW,
bash-2.05$ ldd /usr/local/pgsql/lib/plpython.so
libpython2.2.so => /usr/local/lib/libpython2.2.so (0x4000a000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400f8000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

and,
bash-2.05$ ldd /usr/local/lib/libpython2.2.so
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400ee000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

Doesn't seem overly helpful in this case, except to maybe eliminate an
avenue of inquiry?

Thanks again, Tom.
