Hi!

Today I noticed, that the windows distribution of Houdini is missing python25.lib, which is needed in order to link python extension modules. Since the python headers are included in the package, I expected to find the link library in there, too. The Linux distribution is shipping libpython2.5.a, so building Houdini conform python extensions works perfectly on this platform.

Thanks
Frank

P.S.: I also noticed, that in the directory $H/python/bin there are debug builds of the MSVC runtime libraries located. This seems to be an error.

Both of these issues sound like packaging errors to me. Unless you're looking for a community response, please log a bug via the Support menu above. Thanks!

Sorry. I haven't noticed this. I still thought, that apprentice users should post to the forum instead of addressing support directly. This must have changed sometime.

If it's something that is clearly a bug, then I can't see why Side Effects wouldn't want to know about it.
