embedding Python in a shared library

[Deepak Chandran]

I have embedded Python in a shared library. This works fine in Windows (dll), but I get the following error is Ubuntu when I try to load modules:
/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/time.so: error: symbol lookup
error: undefined symbol: PyExc_ValueError



I found many postings on this issue on the internet, but I was not able to find a solution that worked. I tried to load libpython2.5.so.1 into my program using dlopen, but that crashed the program for some reason. I tried building my library using the libpython2.5.a, but the same error was there.

I am sure someone has a solution to this, since it seems like a general issue.
