Problem using python bindings

[Dean N. Williams]

Dear fmri,

    Did you create a .../lib directory with symbolic links to all the *.so
files?

    Example:
    ln -s /vtk2.4/patented/libVTKPatented.so libVTKPatented.so

    Then in your PYTHONPATH include the .../lib.
    Also in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH include the .../lib.

    Try this!

Best Regards,
        Dean
