I am looking to install pyMel 1.03 in a different directory than:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\Maya2009\Python\lib\site-packages
However, I want to use the functionality on using .egg and .pth files
for easy installation of modules so I used (Not just for pyMel) the
following code for the pth files to be read (runs before maya opens I
believe):
python ("import site;site.addsitedir( 'S:\\G..s\\Maya\\Python25\\Lib\
\site-packages' )");
I left the maya folder in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk
\Maya2009\Python\lib\site-packages. The one that was installed along
with Maya
I drop the pymel, etc: .egg files in S:\\G..s\\Maya\\Python25\\Lib\
\site-packages. (It was installed locally at first)
If I print the sys.path I get the following results:
S:\G...Maya\Python25\Lib\site-packages\setuptools-0.6c9-py2.5.egg
S:\G...Maya\Python25\Lib\site-packages\pymel-1.0.0-py2.5.egg
S:\G...Maya\Python25\Lib\site-packages\ipython-0.10.2-py2.5.egg
S:\G...Maya\Python25\Lib\site-packages\ply-3.3-py2.5.egg

If I run the following code, the error references the C drive:
import pymel.core as pm
