Hello,
Can I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable (on-the-fly) within a .py
file?
I would like to use an .so-file that lives in a non-standard location.
This does not work:
try:
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"] += (":" + path)
except KeyError:
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"] = path
Currently, I can only run the program in the terminal:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/dude/Desktop/test
python /home/dude/Desktop/testLoadLibLinux.py
This works (yaaayy!), but I'd like to run the .py file directly.
Is this possible? I also don't like the fact that I can't test the .py file in
Idle.
Perhaps a complicating factor is a bug in LD_LIBRARY_PATH
in Linux Ubuntu 10 (the version I'm
using):https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/366728
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/366728/comments/21
solution:
sudo gedit /etc/X11/Xsession.options
(change "use-ssh-agent" into "no-use-ssh-agent")
Thank you in advance for your thoughts!
Cheers!!
Albert-Jan
