Re: Django 1.5.1, gdal 1.9.2: segmentation fault on DataSource import

Same here (also running Arch Linux), by running functions on shell:

---
In [1]: from ctypes import CDLL

In [3]: lib_path = '/usr/lib/libgdal.so'

In [4]: lgdal = CDLL(lib_path)

In [5]: lgdal['GDALVersionInfo']
Out[5]: <_FuncPtr object at 0x52447a0>

In [6]: lgdal['GDALVersionInfo'](b'RELEASE_NAME')
Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault
zsh: abort (core dumped) python manage.py shell
---

I find weird pygame reference there, do you also have pygame
installed)?
