build fails due to __init__.py not found about py-leveldb

[GoogleCodeExporter]

update: even though the build completes, the module doesn't work properly in 
python.

>>> import leveldb
>>> db = leveldb.LevelDB()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'LevelDB'

There was something similar reported a while ago. 
http://code.google.com/p/py-leveldb/issues/detail?id=17

I think the __init__.py isn´t necessary. It should work regardless. I´ll 
investigate this tomorrow.

• Changed state: Accepted

For some reason ( at least on ubuntu 12 ) the flags are not causing the build 
to link against the static leveldb.a. I modified the compile script to ( only 
compile the static lib ) make it work.

make libleveldb.a LDFLAGS='-L../snappy-read-only/.libs/ -Bstatic -lsnappy' 
OPT='-fPIC -O2 -DNDEBUG -DSNAPPY -I../snappy-read-only' SNAPPY_CFLAGS=''
