Hi there,

sql>create or replace function f1() returns table(v1 INT)
more>LANGUAGE PYTHON {
more>         return [1,2,3]
more>};
operation successful (3.658ms)
sql>select * from f1();
Embedded Python is enabled but an error was thrown during initialization.

Does one have to setup another python env variables (like it's done on MonetDB for Windows: PYTHONHOME, PYTHONPATH) on Linux?

p.s. Here are is how I setup environment
1) installed MonetDB v11.27.5 (Jul2017-SP1) binaries 
on centos-release-7-4.1708.el7.centos.x86_64:
sudo yum install https://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/MonetDB-release-epel.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/7/x86_64/MonetDB-stream-11.27.5-20170727.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/7/x86_64/MonetDB-client-11.27.5-20170727.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/7/x86_64/MonetDB5-server-11.27.5-20170727.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/7/x86_64/MonetDB-SQL-server5-11.27.5-20170727.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/epel/7/x86_64/MonetDB-python2-11.27.5-20170727.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm

2) installed Anaconda2
Python 2.7.13 |Anaconda 4.4.0 (64-bit)| (default, Dec 20 2016, 23:09:15)
[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-1)] on linux2

export PATH="/home/akravchenko/anaconda2/bin:$PATH"

3) created and started Monet database:

monetdbd create hnode1_dbfarm

monetdbd set port=50001 hnode1_dbfarm

monetdbd set control=yes hnode1_dbfarm

monetdbd set passphrase=monetdb hnode1_dbfarm

monetdbd start hnode1_dbfarm

monetdb create hnode1_dbfarm_db1

monetdb set embedpy=true hnode1_dbfarm_db1

monetdb start hnode1_dbfarm_db1

monetdb release hnode1_dbfarm_db1

4)monetdbd get all hnode1_dbfarm

5) monetdb get all hnode1_dbfarm_db1
     name          prop     source           value
