Vorbis - Aug 2002 - Problems with ogg/vorbis python bindings.

I compiled and installed pyogg followed by pyvorbis, running:

$ ./config_unix.py
$ python setup.py build
and as root:
# python setup.py install

for pyogg and pyvorbis in turn. This completed without error, however
upon trying to import ogg.vorbis in IDLE I get an import error:

ImportError: libvorbisfile.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory

I was told this may have been caused by an older version of the modules
lying around somewhere, so I did a: find / -name "*ogg*" and find /
-name "*voribs*" and deleted everything associated with ogg and
vorbis,
then did a clean install of libao, libogg, libvorbis, vorbistools,
pyogg, and pyvorbis.

This is the ldd output on vorbismodule.so

asqui@martha:/usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages/ogg$ ldd vorbismodule.so
        libvorbis.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libvorbis.so.0 (0x4000e000)
        libvorbisfile.so.3 => not found
        libvorbisenc.so.2 => not found
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4002f000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4014c000)
        libogg.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libogg.so.0 (0x4016d000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

I still get an import error.
>>> import ogg.vorbis
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: libvorbisfile.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
>>>
Sorry, I'm a bit of a newbie to this stuff so I don't have much clue
what is going on.

Thanks for your help.

<p>Look for libvorbisfile.* :
$ locate libvorbisfile

And you may have something like /usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so and other files.
So make a symbolic link to the real file:
$ ln -s /usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so /usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so.3

Do the same operations for libvorbisenc.so.2 .

This the output I've obtained on my system:
$ locate libvorbisfile
/usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so.0
/usr/lib/libvorbisfile.a
/usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so
/usr/lib/libvorbisfile.so.0.2.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisfile.so.0.2.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisfile.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisfile.so
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisfile.la
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisfile.a

$ locate libvorbisenc
/usr/lib/libvorbisenc.so.0
/usr/lib/libvorbisenc.a
/usr/lib/libvorbisenc.so
/usr/lib/libvorbisenc.so.0.1.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisenc.so.0.1.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisenc.so.0
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisenc.so
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisenc.la
/usr/local/lib/libvorbisenc.a

With this kind of problems, use symolic links: it may work lots of times !
