On an installed system without development packages, the <lib>.so filenames are not available. ctypes.util.find_library() can be used to detect the files dynamically. In addition to this, also fixing some minor indention errors and package the library into the Python site-packages path. Python applications and libraries can now access libgfapi through 'from glusterfs import gfapi'.

In case the problem is still not fixed with glusterfs-3.4.3, please reopen this bug report. glusterfs-3.4.3 has been announced on the Gluster Developers mailinglist [1], packages for several distributions should already be or become available in the near future. Keep an eye on the Gluster Users mailinglist [2] and the update infrastructure for your distribution. The fix for this bug likely to be included in all future GlusterFS releases i.e. release > 3.4.3. In the same line the recent release i.e. glusterfs-3.5.0 [3] likely to have the fix. You can verify this by reading the comments in this bug report and checking for comments mentioning "committed in release-3.5".

Description of problem: <glusterfs.git>/api/examples/gfapi.py can be used by Python scripts to access the contents of volumes without going through the FUSE native client. After showing a simple example during the Gluster Community Day in Stockholm (4 Sept. 2013), it was requested to have the library installed by the RPMs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Current git/master Expected results: /usr/lib/python*/site-packages/gfapi.py is installed by the glusterfs-api package. Importing the library should work without issues: $ python -c "import gfapi"
