Jeff (or anyone) - I recently reinstalled all of my numpy/scipy related packages, including matplotlib, from a Mac OS X installer called the SciPy SuperPack.
(http://macinscience.org/?page_id=6) All of the packages he includes work really well. However, after I used easy_install to grab Basemap, I found I can't import it. I was wondering if you could give me a pointer on how to tell Python where to look for Basemap? Thanks, Mike Hearne My site-packages directory looks like this: -rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 119 Oct 5 2007 README drwxr-xr-x 20 root admin 680 Apr 30 16:43 basemap-0.9.9.1-py2.5- macosx-10.5-i386.egg -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 555 Apr 30 16:43 easy-install.pth drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 30 16:49 ipython-0.8.3.svn.r3001-py2.5.egg drwxr-xr-x 12 root admin 408 Apr 30 16:48 matplotlib-0.98pre- py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 11 root admin 374 Apr 17 15:03 matplotlib-0.98pre- py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 5 root admin 170 Apr 30 16:38 nose-0.10.1-py2.5.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 17 15:03 numpy-1.0.5.dev4954- py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 30 16:48 numpy-1.1.0.dev5077- py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 17 15:04 pymc-2.0DEV_r686-py2.5- macosx-10.3-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 30 16:49 pymc-2.0DEV_r709-py2.5- macosx-10.3-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 6 root admin 204 Apr 17 15:04 readline-2.5.1-py2.5- macosx-10.5-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 17 15:04 scipy-0.7.0.dev4075- py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg drwxr-xr-x 4 root admin 136 Apr 30 16:48 scipy-0.7.0.dev4174- py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 324858 Apr 17 15:03 setuptools-0.6c8- py2.5.egg -rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 29 Apr 30 16:41 setuptools.pth The easy-install.pth file looks like this: import sys; sys.__plen = len(sys.path) ./setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg ./readline-2.5.1-py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg ./ipython-0.8.3.svn.r3001-py2.5.egg ./numpy-1.1.0.dev5077-py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg ./matplotlib-0.98pre-py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg ./scipy-0.7.0.dev4174-py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg ./pymc-2.0DEV_r709-py2.5-macosx-10.3-i386.egg ./nose-0.10.1-py2.5.egg ./basemap-0.9.9.1-py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg import sys; new=sys.path[sys.__plen:]; del sys.path[sys.__plen:]; p=getattr(sys,'__egginsert',0); sys.path[p:p]=new; sys.__egginsert = p +len(new) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
