ImportError: libpython3.9.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I am using a conda environment in which I built SOFA v21.12 with SofaPython3 (in tree) and caribou v21.12 with SOFA support.

The issue appears when I try to import Caribou at build/v21.12/install/lib/python3/site-packages/Caribou/init.py:1

Full error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: libpython3.9.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

However, If I first import Sofa and then import Caribou, it works.

Hey François,

Thanks for telling us about this. I will try to have a look at this soon. Good that found a workaround, it should also help us to locate the problem.
