I read on another thread that this has something to do with the python version but I’ve tried specifying both versions I have and nothing helps.

I think the link command line is missing -ldl. I could have sworn I fixed that at some point…

thanks alot, this is panda 1.4.0 so you might have fixed it in another version?

Hm… look out for anything with a x.x.0 version number. That’s usually the buggiest of the releases.

The release cycle looks like this: I wait a few months, and make a new release numbered X.X.0. Soon after, people report bugs, and I rapidly release X.X.1, X.X.2, and so forth, until the nastiest bugs are gone. Then I wait a few months and start it all over.

If you’re using 1.4.0, there’s really no reason not to be using 1.4.2.
