We rely on setup.py install installing to what Python thinks sys.prefix is. If those don't match, then we can't find our files. You can check sys.prefix by: $ python2 >>> import sys >>> sys.prefix Or alternatively, add a print line in setup_resources where you're seeing the traceback. I'm guessing that it will be /usr, but the install has gone to /usr/local. cheers, Kai
