it's just easier to import this small amount of extra payload than to attempt a war on autotools.

This directory contains Python bindings to allow you to access the
|
|
libmagic api. At the moment their status is "experimental" and
|
|
they are not built by default. You may need to edit include and library
|
|
search paths in setup.py so that python's distutils build process can
|
|
find the magic header and lib files.
|
|
|
|
In order to be able to compile magic-python you need to have python
|
|
and the python-dev packages installed.
|
|
|
|
Python libraries are always built for a particular version of Python
|
|
(2.2, 2.3, etc), and libraries built for one version will not be seen
|
|
by another.
|
|
|
|
To build:
|
|
|
|
$ python setup.py build
|
|
|
|
Now, you can install the modules:
|
|
|
|
$ cp build/lib.*/magic.so /usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/
|
|
|
|
(the directory /usr/lib/python2.3 may vary, depending on your installation)
|
|
|
|
magic-python should work now!
