Hi.
I'm using Mac OS 10.2.3, Apple's implementation of X11
<http://www.apple.com/x11/> based on XFree 4.2.1, Apple's X11 SDK, Fink
0.5.1, and Visual-2002-07-22 from the VPython web site
<http://www.vpython.org>. I've installed the system-xfree86 package and
the fink Python (Python 2.2 specifically) package. Everything installed
properly with no errors. I forgot to become root to run the VPython
install script, but I ran it again as root. Actually, I ran it again
with "sudo" which worked under OS 10.1.5 and Fink 0.4.1.
Now, when I try to run any VPython program from IDLE, here's what I get:
-----begin error message
Visual-2002-07-22
Traceback (innermost last)
File "/sw/share/python-visual/Programs/Demos/orbit.py", line 1, in ?
from visual import *
ImportError: Failure linking new module
Program disconnected.
-----end error message
This specific example was for orbit.py, but I get the same error with
any program, and I get the same error whether I run the program from
the ~/VPython/Programs/Demos folder or from the duplicate folder under
/sw.
The only thing out of the ordinary I've noticed is that my /sw tree is
owned by my admin username and not root. I understood this to be a bug
in the Fink 0.5.1 installer and I was under the impression that a new
installer would be issued or that simply using chown to make root on
/sw would be okay.
Any suggestions?
Joe
