As part of the MayaVi install, I need to install VTK. Follwoing the Enthought instructions, I went here: http://cpbotha.net/2009/08/13/python-2-6-enabled-vtk-5-4-windows-binaries/ and installed vtk-5.4. I modified the PATH and also created an environment variable PYTHONPATH as directed, setting it to be C: \Program Files\VTK\bin; C:\Program Files\VTK\lib\site-packages; According to Botha's instructions, I should now be able to do 'import vtk', but this doesn't work: no module named vtk.
Since VTK appears to be installed, I'm guessing that either the path setting is wrong, or python is not using PYTHONPATH. How can I check that PYTHONPATH is being used? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
