Where is your libpython2.5.so installed? Not your sylimk, but what the
symlink points at.

Your operating system installation is severely crippled or broken if
these standard libraries cannot be found. Are you stuck with using
uClibc or can you use something else?

Why is this under /bin/lib? That isn't the standard location for this
sort off stuff and if libpython2.5.so is in /bin/lib it will not be
found.
