large objects

Hi!

I've been trying to get postgres LO interface to work with python.

I have been successful with  three configurations:
1) pgsql 6.4.2 & PyGreSQL 2.2 on Linux/x86
2) pgsql 6.5beta1 & PyGgeSQL 2.3 on Linux/x86
3) pgsql 6.5beta1 & PyGreSQL 2.3 on SPARC/Solaris 2.6

And failed with all other:
* 6.5beta2 ... 6.5 final on SPARC/Solaris 2.6 and Linux/x86 with PyGreSQL
2.3 & 2.4 in any combination.

* 6.4.2 on SPARC/Solaris 2.6 with PyGreSQL 2.2 .. 2.4


What i rally need is to get something to work on SPARC/Solaris. The only
vesrion taht has worked is 6.5beta1 but I can't find it anywhere.

with 6.4.2 & PyGreSQL on Solaris (on x86 linus it is ok) the problem is
following:
$python
Python 1.5.2 (#5, Jun 30 1999, 20:15:59)  [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314

>>> from pg import *
>>> c=connect()
>>> o=c.locreate(INV_WRITE)
>>> o.open(INV_WRITE)
>>> o.oid
21089
>>> o.close()
>>> o2=c.locreate(INV_WRITE)
>>> o2.open(INV_WRITE)
>>>
>>> o2.write("hello")
>>> o2.close()
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
IOError: error while closing large object fd.

and 6.5 on both Solaris $ Linux the problem is folllowing:
[postgres@liha pgsql]$ python
Python 1.5.2 (#3, Jun 13 1999, 23:57:46)  [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux

>>> lo.open(INV_WRITE)
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
IOError: can't open large object.
>>>
and backend says:
ERROR:  lo_lseek: invalid large obj descriptor (0)


Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
