I have default python 2.7.1 installed along with fedora15. Then installed postgresql from binary installers. This creates the plpython.so, plpython2.so and plpython3.so in lib/postgresql directory under postgresql installation. When I go for creating a new language plpython, it gives me some error regarding pythonś version. By default it is compiled with 2.6 and I have 2.7, so I need to get source code and compile it against python 2.7. For this I will configure --with-python option and see which python it uses and where it is located. For me it used python 2.7 and shown the python default installation. Then I used ´make' and ´make install world´ and copied plpython.so and plpython2.so to new postgresql installation. Started the server and try to create new language, then the earlier mentioned error comes as
undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS4_AsEncodedString.
Previously It was working on fedora 14 . It seems that I have to recompile and install python 2.7 at another location and use it for postgresql make process. But not sure that it will solve error.
Thanks and regards,
