- 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!
