When importing open3d in python 3.6.9

Import fails.

>>> import open3d

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/open3d/linux/open3d.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Checking the directory shows that file exists.

>>> quit()

myshell# cd /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/open3d/linux/
myshell# ls -lah

Try fixing the search paths and environment variables (LD_LIBRARY_PATH, e.g.), as shown in Why can't Python find shared objects that are in directories in sys.path? and https://serverfault.com/questions/527212/python-ubuntu-and-importerror-libblpapi3-64-so-cannot-open-shared-object-file.

I concede it is anyway cryptic that ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/open3d/linux/open3d.so... explicitly states the path. YMMV.

How did you get open3d in your system? Did you compile it? How did you install?
