I'm not exactly sure if I know what you are trying to do, but hopefully the following might help... The 'libraries' key is only for listing libraries that will be linked in (ie. -lpgs -lppc, from your example) and the 'library_dirs' key is for listing library directories that will be looked in for the libraries to link (ie. -L/usr/X11R6/lib/X11). So, I believe your setup.py should look like: setup (.... ext_modules = [('name', {'sources' : [ your c sources ], 'libraries': ['pgs', 'ppc'], 'library_dirs' : ['/usr/X11R6/lib/X11'] }) ] ) Hope this helps.
