> Libpython's soname changes every minor release, which makes binary redistribution infeasible. There is, however, a stable API of libpython, in which things like macros with implementation details are avoided, and this is ABI-compatible with python 3.2+.
> https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/stable.html
> Minifi c++ should be changed to use only this limited API of python. Since it's currently using pybind11, which is not compatible with the limited stable API, it's most likely necessary to get rid of this wrapper and manually call C API functions.
