Hi, thanks for your answers. I finally made it work by setting the
PYTHONPATH environment variable to the directory where I had untarred
FiPy. Previously I was using the directory where I had installed using
setup.py.
What I did originally was:
$ python setup.py --home=~
and then
$ export PYTHONPATH=~/lib/python
This is what got me the error when I tried to run the examples.
instead, if I set
$ export PYTHONPATH=.
and run the examples from the base directory of the distribution
package, it works perfectly.
I don't know why it doesn't work from the installed place...
Another thing is that for me, both running "python setup.py test" and
"python setup.py bdist_egg" give errors. Maybe I'm lacking some
development packages. I'll paste the error messages so that you can
see them if you are interested.
This is running bdist_egg:

Ok, that's all. FiPy is working fine for me now if I run it from its
own directory. I am using version 2.1. I was going to try 2.1.1
yesterday before sending mail but the site was broken for downloading
:-)
Thank you very much for your help.
