Yes, 2 is plural.

What about those two lines?
>>> import ctypes.util
>>> ctypes.util.find_library('c')
'libc.so.0.1'

And since support for python 2.4 is going away, I guess we don't care
about introducing a dependency on 2.5 (ctypes is said to be new in
this version). Another way, if you don't like ctypes, might be to just
look for something matching the '/lib/libc.so*' pattern. Not so clean
but your call.

Mraw,
KiBi.
