Python binding broken in 1.2.15

[todd.valentic@…]

The Python binding no longer works since updating to 1.2.15 (tested on both Fedora Core 5/Python 2.4 and Fedora Core 4/Python 2.3).

The following error occurs when importing the module:

Python 2.4.3 (#1, Jun 13 2006, 11:46:08)
[GCC 4.1.1 20060525 (Red Hat 4.1.1-1)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import rrdtool
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initrrdtool)
>>>

The release notes mention a change in the naming convention and checking the subversion site shows the relevant change was made in revision 839:

 http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool-trac/changeset/839

Backing out these changes fixes the problem. I think the original version correctly follows the expected naming convention.

Fixed in svn revision [864]. Patch included in latest Fedora Extras rrdtool builds.
