[Qgis-developer] QGIS Python support in a library

[John C. Tull]

Does this translate to something that can be modified in the base code  
to get proper functionality in a build of qgis without the need to  
hand edit files for the @loader_path stuff? I really would like to  
have python plugins that work in my builds, and greatly appreciate  
William's detective work and ability to make binaries that do provide  
full python functionality. Unfortunately, I do not understand what  
needs to be done on my end to get the same functionality. I would  
probably make the necessary changes to the @executable_path issues,  
but I am not clear on how to go about this.

Cheers,
John
