PyROOT import error on MacOS X (5.15/02)

ROOT

I downloaded the tar package (MacOS X PPC 10.4.8 and gcc 4.0.1, version 5.15/02) from
root.cern.ch/root/Version515.html

After setting up the environment, I got the following error:

[code]exaos>$ python

import ROOT

What’s the matter? I hope there are some description for MacOS X platform (PPC).

Hi,

the library “…/libpython2.4.dylib” is not found from the current path. Apparently, libPyROOT.so was linked with that relative path (see "otool -L $ROOTSYS/lib/libPyROOT.so). Did you supply this to “configure”? If so, could you reconfigure with an absolute path to the python installation, and rebuild?

Cheers,
