[pygame] Trouble installing PyGame
I installed PyGame in my local directory without being root. The installer
told me that I had to add the directory to my Python path, which I did, but
other than that there were no error messages.
When I import pygame from Python, I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/home/dan/pygame/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pygame/__init__.py",
line 83, in ?
from pygame.base import *
ImportError: /home/dan/pygame/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pygame/base.so:
undefined symbol: XSetWMProtocols
What's going on?

things in different ways, that natural languages accommodate many
mindsets, and that programming languages should too.
