From the description, it sounds like the following happened:
- Installation of SOAPpy without fpconst failed, because setup.py imports SOAPpy to fetch the version.
- Installation of SOAPpy without fpconst using DarwinPorts succeeded, but didn't actually work because fpconst is still missing. A whole lot of other crap (Python 2.4, etc.) was installed in the process.
Actually, here is hypothesis number 3:
Instalation of python 2.4, fpconst, py-xml and py-soappy with darwinports suceeded, but the OP is still invoking python2.3 because either /opt/local/bin/python is not in the $PATH or is not before /usr/bin/python
And Suggestion number 3: Try invoking darwinports python explicitly with /opt/local/bin/python if you want to use darwinports modules. I'm certain (looking at the portfile in front of me) that py-soappy doesn't miss either py-fpconst or py-xml as deps.
cheers
