Hey Florian, 

Thanks. I am grateful for the help. 

here's the call result: python3.8 crypt pthread dl  util m m

Hey Josh,

Looking at your g++ call your IOC does not get linked against libpython3.8 which explains the undefined references to python bindings.

Can you execute the command `$(PYTHON_CONFIG) --ldflags --embed | sed 's/-[^l][^ ]*//g' | sed 's/-l//g'` by hand and check the output?

It should look like this:

$> python3-config --ldflags --embed | sed 's/-[^l][^ ]*//g' | sed 's/-l//g'
 python3.9 crypt pthread dl  util m m

This is for Klemen Vodopivec the author of `PyDevice`

1) thanks for making this 

2) I'm having some issues getting a simple ioc to build with pydev support 

I'm using a Raspberry Pi and linux-arm as the host architecture

for specific reasons: using EPICS base 3.15.6, python 3.8.10 on ubuntu for arm64 in a docker container

The module itself builds alright. and the testing ioc runs just fine

When I create a basic IOC, with makeBaseApp.pl using the ioc template, 

adding the lines as indicated:

```

analogCtrlIOC_DBD += pydev.dbd

analogCtrlIOC_LIBS += pydev

SYS_PROD_LIBS += $(shell $(PYTHON_CONFIG) --ldflags --embed | sed 's/-[^l][^ ]*//g' | sed 's/-l//g')

with the RELEASE file for the IOC pointed at the location of the support module

with `make` i get

```

PYTHON_CONFIG is set for python3 

any thoughts?
