Bug Description

When I start yafaray-xml it immediately crashes as it is unable to load the shared library listed:

yafaray-xml: error while loading shared libraries: libyafaraycore.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The package file lists for both amd64 and i386 list /usr/lib/yafaray/libyafaraycore.cpython-34m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so instead of libyafaray-core. I would expect that file existing in the package to be named libyarafaycore.so.

I have never (and cannot right now) install yafaray on an older system to test if this is a regression or not.

for a quick workaround I just made a couple of sym links for:

libyafaraycore.so -> libyafaraycore.cpython-34m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
libyafarayplugin.so -> libyafarayplugin.cpython-34m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

in the /usr/lib/yafaray directory.

Also, the version of Blender 2.69 doesn't work with the exporter in the ubuntu repo, I had to download the latest version from https://github.com/YafaRay/Blender-Exporter. Seems to work.
