I have installed lxml which was built using a standalone version of libxml2. Reason for this was that the lxml needed a later version of libxml2 than what was currently installed.
When I use the lxml module how do I tell it (python) where to find the correct version of the libxml2 shared library?
Assuming you’re talking about a
.sofile, it’s not up to Python to find it — it’s up to the operating system’s dynamic library loaded. For Linux, for example,LD_LIBRARY_PATHis the environment variable you need to set.
