[Python.NET] Python for .NET load .dll

[Tony Roberts]

Hi,

I seem to remember some problems possibly related to this... those binaries
you've found are quite old now. As a first set I would recommend checking
out the latest source from github and building the pythonnet binaries
yourself. It should be as simple as running "python setup.py install" (or
bdist_wheel/bdist_egg to build the wheel/egg if you prefer).

The git repo is here: https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet/
Or if you are using python 3 use this one:
https://github.com/renshawbay/pythonnet

Best regards,
Tony
