To install the Kyoto Cabinet API for Python (initial instructions from others):
Test Kyoto Cabinet with:
kcprototest wicked 5
As root, of course:
cd $HOME
yum -y install python-devel
wget http://fallabs.com/kyotocabinet/pythonlegacypkg/kyotocabinet-python-legacy-1.18.tar.gz
tar xzvf kyotocabinet-python-legacy-1.18.tar.gz
cd kyotocabinet-python-legacy-1.18
python setup.py install # may take some time!
Create and run a test program, e.g., testkc.py, from the Kyoto Cabint web site.
It should run OK.
You probably want to make K.C. available outside root. Create a new file:
vi /etc/ld.so.conf.d/usrlocal.conf
and add the line:
/usr/local/lib
Then run
ldconfig -v
Move the testkc.py to a user account and run it there; it should be OK
