No. It generates python25.lib because that's the import library for python25.dll. It calls it python25.dll because the lib prefix is atypical for the platform, and also redundant (DLL means "dynamic link library"). The Python binary installer also includes libpython25.a, for use with mingw32. Regards, Martin
