I'm talking to myself :)

Found out why the lib would not be found: I needed to reference to it as
cryptopp , not libcryptopp.a.

Now I just need to find out why I get the following when in python:

Python 2.2 (#1, 07/14/02, 23:25:09)
[GCC Apple cpp-precomp 6.14] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import vbsecurity
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: Failure linking new module


Cheers
