+ - Q: Whenever I try to use the Python support, I get a segfault
+
+ A: Make sure that the boost_python library you linked against is using the
+ exact same Python as the Ledger executable. In particular I see this
+ bug on OS X systems where boost_python is linked against the default
+ Python, while Ledger is linked against the version provided by MacPorts.
+
+ Solution: Use one or the other. If you prefer the system Python, run
+ "port deactivate -f python26", to get MacPorts' version out of the way.
+ You'll then need to delete the Ledger binary and run "make" to relink
+ it.

+
+ - Q: When I run "make check", the Python unit tests always crash
+
+ A: This can happen for the same reason as above. It can also happen if you
+ have ICU support enabled. This is a bug I'm still trying to track down.
