Thank you very much for providing the information. I used the
patch and now I can install fipy. I think except for the bug in
setuptools, my biggest problem was I tried to install fipy in a
directory that setuptools does not like. Please see:
http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#mac-os-x-user-installation
However, if I install fipy in
~/Library/Python/2.3/site-packages/, as required, I have problem
with my other modules.
What problems? What other modules?
I tried the diffusion example but got the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File
"/Users/liangz/Library/Python/2.3/site-packages/fipy/viewers/__init__.py",
line 112, in make
raise ImportError, "Failed to import a viewer: %s" % str(errors)
ImportError: Failed to import a viewer: ['gistViewer: The truth value of
an array with more than one element is ambiguous. Use a.any() or
a.all()', 'gnuplotViewer: The truth value of an array with more than one
element is ambiguous. Use a.any() or a.all()', "matplotlibViewer:
'module' object has no attribute 'ion'", 'mayaviViewer: Mayavi does not
display useful 1D data', "multiViewer: 'module' object has no attribute
'make'", "tsvViewer: 'module' object has no attribute 'make'"]
This error will appear whenever I tried "viewers.make". This might not
be relevant to the installation problem but it never happened to me before.
I really hope that I can install fipy in the place I want.
Which is where?
Hello,
I've not used mac os at all but your best guide of installing python
modules (in non-standard places) is probably
Installing Python Modules
http://docs.python.org/inst/inst.html
And easy install respects distutils config files. You may want to setup
a personal config file and modify PYTHONPATH.

ST
