I'm curious to try notmuch with the alot frontend, but I'm having a hard time getting the python bindings to work on OS X.  I have tried with notmuch installed from homebrew as well as compiled from git.  

I think the issue has something to do with shared versus dynamic libraries on OS X, but these are not things that I'm familiar with and able to troubleshoot.  When I try to run alot, I get the following error:

  ImportError: Could not find shared 'notmuch' library.

It does appear that there are dynamic libs for notmuch in a place that python can find them.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
Steve
