Hello!

I'm new to this mailinglist and also new to python. Please excuse me if this
question has already been asked a couple of times.

After i fixed i little typo in dbi.c (patch attached) i tried to use it.

After further investigating the problem i came up with the following:


[thomas@sun1 ~]$python
Python 1.4 (Dec 12 1996)  [GCC 2.7.2]
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
>>> import _informixdb
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: ld.so.1: python: fatal: relocation error: symbol not found: _PyObject_New: referenced in /usr/local/lib/python1.4/_informixdb.so
>>> 

Can someone help me with an idea about what's going wrong here?

Thanks in advance.
