[C++-sig] Preview of Boost.Python V2 problems

[Arnaldur Gylfason]

I tried importing 1 of the test modules and got the following error:

>>> import m1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError:
../../libs/python/bin/bpl/gcc/debug-python/runtime-link-dynamic/shared-linkable-true/bpl.so:

undefined symbol: _Py_RefTotal


Another thing, the modules specify a relative path to bpl.so.
When importing e.g. m1, it can't find bpl.so unlessit it is in
[prefix]/libs/python since it always looks for
../../libs/python/bin/bpl/gcc/debug-python/runtime-link-dynamic/shared-linkable-true/bpl.so

(I tried i)using -Wl,-rpath,dir , ii) specifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH , but to
no avail)

jam should be able to figure out the absolute path so couldn't it specify
an absolute path to the shared library file?

cheers
