Hi,

activities run for security reasons in a restricted environment, see
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Bitfrost . This means that your activity
won't be able to write to /usr/lib.

But if you just want to link to code at runtime, just ship the .so
inside your activity. See for an example the Colors! activity:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Colors%21 .

Hope that helps,

Tomeu
