Help getting PySFML running

[zill]

I downloaded the DEV files for linux and put the PySFML folder in the site-packages of my python installation.

I get the error:

ImprotError: libsfml-graphics.so.1.4: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

I have the libsfml-graphics.so.1.4 file, but I don't know how to fix the error.  Can anyone help?

Thank you

You probably have a 64 bits system; SFML is compiled for 32 bits. If so, you'll have to recompile SFML and PySFML for your architecture.

I think the problem is that you have a 64 bits library for pysfml and a 32 bits library for sfml.
You can either build sfml yourself in order to have a 64b version or use the 32b version of pysfml.

Edit : damned, Laurent is faster than me

Wow, you reply fast.  I tried using the 32 bit version of PySFML, but I just got an error saying that sf.so is the wrong elf class.

So, I'm trying to compile SFML for my architecture.  Hopefully I can get it to work.

Thank you for the quick response.

The sfml-system compiles fine.  However, the sfml-window does not.  I get these errors:

Do you know what to do?

Edit:

I didn't realize that I needed to have xorg-dev installed in order to compile SFML.  I got it working.

Sorry, i made a silly suggestion, it couldn't have worked since you have a 64b version of python and of all the libraries sfml depends on.
