[SOLVED] taglib won't import after upgrading python to 3.4.3-2

When I try

import taglib

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/taglib.cpython-34m.so: undefined symbol: AnnotateIgnoreReadsBegin

I tried reinstalling taglib, no dice.  But now that I've downgraded python to 3.4.3-1, it works again.

Anyone know what's up?  Thanks in advance!

where did that file come from? I don't find it in the repos.

The python ABI changed, all C extensions need rebuilt.

Aha, that explains it.

The file is from here: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/taglib/

No, it's not. That package does not contain any python files.

Oh, good point.  It was probably from pytaglib (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-pytaglib/), which I had forgotten about.  I bet reinstalling it fixes the problem.  Thanks!
