Hi,

my download was a .tgz file; anyway, correct ungzipping more or less proves data integrity. As the /mnt/onboard is a VFAT filesystem, links don't work anyway, and rights are the same for every file / directory.

We should be able to rule those out - especially, as the programs run as root.

The object library in question - strop.so - is existent, readable and seems ok (the file header, that is).

So - I'm guessing here - either it is not okay, because either compiling or linking went wrong, or there are other (internal?) problems concerning python internals, dynamic linking or something I don't seem to think about.

Python internals have evaded me so far, and I have no experience with cross-compiler-toolchains, so I couldn't say something about that.

I have been running compilers on ARM devices natively, but I don't feel ready yet to put up a complete compiler suite on the Kobo... :-)

Using web search a bit seems to find a lot of issues with python and dlopen(). Further investigation from my side is somewhat futile, as I'm not even able to recognize an error reported by python... or am I overlooking something?
