I'm trying to write a python script to control my Sky-Watcher Allview mount on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I ran into some install problems that I solved by following the discussion here , but have run into a new problem that I didn't find anywhere already in the forums. When I try to run my script I get the following message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "skywatcherComm.py", line 4, in <module>
    import PyIndi
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyindi_client-0.2.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg/PyIndi.py", line 28, in <module>
    _PyIndi = swig_import_helper()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyindi_client-0.2.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg/PyIndi.py", line 24, in swig_import_helper
    _mod = imp.load_module('_PyIndi', fp, pathname, description)
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyindi_client-0.2.0-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg/_PyIndi.so: undefined symbol: ln_get_apparent_sidereal_time

Did I miss something on install? Should I have rebooted after install? Any insight is appreciated.
