it sounds like you have a python library issue.

You need to set env variable for pyhon befor running c2ada, I think
the variable is $PYTHONHOME to point to where python is installed or
to where the python libraries are.

If you look at symset.c 
----------------------------

static PyObject * pymod_Symbol;  

 pymod_Symbol = PyImport_ImportModule("Symbol");
    assert(pymod_Symbol);


oSymbol = PyObject_GetAttrString(pymod_Symbol, "oSymbol");
    assert(oSymbol);
      
------------------------------------

so the code seems to load a library, then tries to read the value
of a symbol from that library.

Are you using the correct python version with c2ada? I think
c2ada was build against a specific python library 1.5, but it could
work also with python 2.0.


also do this

PYTHONPATH=/home/c2ada  <---- where you installed phython.
export PYTHONPATH

may be that will help :)

There should be a readme file that talk about all of this, I think
the Ada for linux folks have an RPM build of c2ada but I could be wrong.
