Looking more carefully, it seems that your use of libinterp2d may be the
issue. It is a static library, and that may be your problem. Easiest fix is
to copy its code into your package. Higher-end solution would be to make a
shared library out of libinterp2d but you'd also have to distribute that for
use by others.
