[LAU] Fedora 11 + pyjack + blender

Hi, I'm trying to get the pyjack patch to work with blender. I'm using a Fedora 11 machine for this test. Unfortunately Fedora packagers have to compile the official blender package without ffmpeg support so it is fairly useless for my specific requirement of editing video with Blender. I have the latest binary from the Blender site which is compiled for python 2.6.2. Fedora 11 comes with python 2.6 Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Jun 8 2009, 16:07:29) I'm not sure if that is 2.6.2 or not. However the blender binary cannot find python on my system at all. I guess because it is installed in /usr/lib64 instead of /usr/lib/ and or the included python libs are overriding my system settings for some reason. If I set the python path to /usr/lib64 or /usr/lib64/python2.6 then I get nothing. If I set it to /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/ which is where the pyjack script is installed I get a crash. If I run python by itself it tells me that it can find the correct paths. ================ #python Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Jun 8 2009, 16:07:29) [GCC 4.4.0 20090506 (Red Hat 4.4.0-4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. ['', '/usr/lib64/python26.zip', '/usr/lib64/python2.6', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gst-0.10', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/scim-0.1', '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages'] ================ So ideas on why the blender binary is failing here and how to fix it would be welcome. Also if anyone can recommend a quick way to test pyjack to make sure it is installed properly that would also be handy. Cheers. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd
