error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file

[johnhamelink]

Hi there!

asdf plugin-add python https://github.com/tuvistavie/asdf-python.git
asdf install python 2.7.9
asdf local python 2.7.9
asdf reshim python 2.7.9
python -v

Produces:

/home/john/.asdf/installs/python/2.7.9/bin/python2.7: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I'm sticking to using Arch's python, python-pip, python2, and python2-pip packages for now but I'd like to use asdf instead.

I'm not sure what other info you might need so let me know!

Hi, thanks for reporting.
I think I ran in the same issue, but I completely forgot how I solved this,
I am going to take a look!

Thanks @tuvistavie 🚀

Just ran into this issue trying to run pip3 with version 3.6.0.

Running it this way seems to fix it:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/.asdf/installs/python/3.6.0/lib pip3 --help

I would think this is possible to handle in the shim file, but I'm not sure how the shell overloading of environment variables might work in that way.

The plugin is now a wrapper around python-build, so I think this should be fixed.
Please let me know if it works for you, thanks!

Yep this is fixed, thanks! :)

Great, closing the issue!
