I compile this file into the python libraries, import, but the import into, after open the PST files. But will not be able to use internal methods of the library. Don't know what's going on.

You'll have to be more specific:

I'll have a look when time permits, could be something that needs work.

Know that the Python bindings are still work in progress as indicated in https://github.com/libyal/libpff/issues/2

will be part of work on Python bindings
