Not only are they installed, but they don't even work:
Aaron-Meurer:~ aaronmeurer$doctest
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/doctest", line
17, in <module>
from get_sympy import path_hack
ImportError: No module named get_sympy
Aaron-Meurer:~ aaronmeurer$cd
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/
Aaron-Meurer:bin aaronmeurer$./test
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test", line 14, in <module>
from get_sympy import path_hack
ImportError: No module named get_sympy
Let's get this fixed.
