Point taken. However I cannot make any sense of the python documentation:
http://docs.python.org/library/ctypes.html#finding-shared-libraries

In my case:

$ python
>>> import ctypes.util
>>> lib = ctypes.util.find_library('tiff')
>>> print lib
libtiff.so.5

where:

$ ls -al /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.*  *
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Feb 20 14:59
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so -> libtiff.so.4.3.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Feb 20 14:59
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4 -> libtiff.so.4.3.6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 412208 Feb 20 14:59
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4.3.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     16 Feb 20 14:48
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.5 -> libtiff.so.5.0.6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 462488 Feb 20 14:48
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.5.0.6

I'll need to find some python-guru for that to help me out.
