I'm extremely new to compiling things in anything approaching a pythonic way, 
so my apologies in advance for what's probably a very simplistic question.

I've downloaded the source for psycopg2-2.2.1.  The documentation recommends using the standard 
"python setup.py build" and "python setup.py install".

So I tried to run "ipy setup.py build" to incorporate these libraries into 
IronPython.

I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "setup.py", line 50, in<module>
ImportError: No module named subprocess


subprocess relies on modules like signal that aren't available in IronPython 2.6.1.

There is a partial implementation of subprocess by Jeff Hardy floating around that you could try. In general the IronPython support for distutils is "minimal", so I still wouldn't expect normal module installation to work.

All the best,

Michael

I can verify that subprocess.py is in 
C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Extensions\Microsoft\IronPython
 Tools for Visual Studio\0.2\Lib.  Do I need to add this directory to an 
environment variable (like PATH), or is there some other way I can notify 
IronPython about where to look for library files?

Thanks for your time.
