Hello Mac users!

We are happy to announce that Pydoop (http://pydoop.sourceforge.net) has been included in the Homebrew Python Tap. You should now be able to install on Mac OS X Mountain Lion as follows:

1. Manually install the Oracle JDK
2. Set JAVA_HOME according to your JDK installation, e.g., export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_17.jdk/Contents/Home/
3. Run the following commands:
  brew install boost --build-from-source
  brew install hadoop
  brew tap samueljohn/python
  brew install pydoop

The formula installs Pydoop-0.9.1, which fixes a build issue in Mac OS X. Other OS's are not affected by this update.

As usual, we're happy to receive your feedback on the forum:

Pydoop is a Python MapReduce and HDFS API for Hadoop, built upon the C++
Pipes and the C libhdfs APIs, that allows to write full-fledged MapReduce applications with HDFS access. Pydoop has been maturing nicely and is currently in production use at CRS4 as we have a few scientific projects that are based on it, including Seal (http://biodoop-seal.sourceforge.net), Biodoop-BLAST (http://biodoop.sourceforge.net/blast), and more yet to be released.
