Would appreciate some help with where to start trying to find out what's
going on here.
We're using eggs as the format for extensions to our app and I'm having the
odd bit of strangeness on one machine. I have another with identical
software setup which behaves as expected.
Here is a snippet of our code:
pkg_resources.working_set.add_entry(fullName)
dist_generator = pkg_resources.find_distributions(fullName)
for dist in dist_generator:
try:
extension_class =
dist.load_entry_point("jokosher.extensions", "extension")
extension = extension_class()
print("...done.")
except Exception, e :
print("...failed.")
print(str(e))
and usually it works.
Now because can run with an experimental version of the gstreamer libraries
we can run a script before we run our program which sets various ENV
variables (including PYTHONPATH) to point us to the development libraries
instead of the stock ones. If I run with the stock setup everything is OK.
On one machine (and one machine only) if I run the setup script in order to
pick up the experimental libraries then I get ImportError.
This is a section of the output by running the program with 'python -vv'.
First - with the stock libs (no pre-run script):

import AddInstrumentType # loaded from Zip
/home/john/.jokosher/extensions/AddInstrumentType-0.1-
py2.4.egg/AddInstrumentType/__init__.pyc
...done.
No problems there.
But after running the env-altering script all we get out is:
importing extension... AddInstrumentType-0.1-py2.4.egg
# zipimport: found 10 names in
/home/john/.jokosher/extensions/AddInstrumentType-0.1-py2.4.egg
# zipimport: zlib available
...failed.
No module named AddInstrumentType
It doesn't even seem to begin to look for the module. As I said this only
happens on one machine and I know that it used to work on that one too. If
you could give us a clue on what to look for next then that would be
appreciated.
Thanks
