[Lerftest-ctrls] pyepics setup?

[Wesley Moore]

Nope, looks like a glibc issue.  This can get sorted next week.


/lib64/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.12.so


But python seems to want 2.14, if I read the error correctly.

Hi Wesley,

I am not in the office today but this should get you going:

export PYEPICS_LIBCA=$EPICS_BASE_TOP/$EPICS_BASE_VER/lib/$EPICS_HOST_ARCH/libca.so
export PYEPICS_LIBCOM=$EPICS_BASE_TOP/$EPICS_BASE_VER/lib/$EPICS_HOST_ARCH/libCom.so

The two variables that point PYEPICS to the proper libca should be defined by SLAC’s configuration scripts.

Please let me know if this works for you.

Cheers,
Hugo

Is PyEPICS supposed to be configured?  It doesn't seem to work, looking like it's missing lib links.
