Message 166164 - Python tracker
On a x86_64 Linux workstation, when building from source with ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --enable-ipv6 --with-threads --enable-shared --doc-dir=/usr/doc/python --mandir=/usr/man, almost all library get installed in /usr/lib and not /usr/lib64. And when the python interpreter get launched, it complain about not finding platform dependent libraries and that I should set $PYTHONHOME. When I apply the patch that I joined with this, it all works well.
