Hi!

I think that in file README.txt in chapter INSTALLATION it should be one 
point more. I installed pyPgSQL without any problems but when I tried 
run example script "basic.py"...

[[email protected] python]$ python basic.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "./basic.py", line 3, in ?
     from pyPgSQL import PgSQL
   File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pyPgSQL/PgSQL.py", line 391, in ?
     from libpq import *
   File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/pyPgSQL/libpq/__init__.py", 
line 23, in ?
     from libpq import *
ImportError: libpq.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

It is a problem and some people had the same one. It is an answer for 
this problem. In file /etc/ld.so.conf one should write 
"/usr/local/pgsql/lib/" and run ldconfig.

I think that it should be in README file.
