I attempted to submit a ticket in RT about this, but the application
crashed with an internal server error. Please accept my apology if
anybody receives this twice as a result.
On the present CURRENT python package, the import of libraries fails at
runtime. Both the implicitly included libraries ('site') and the
explicitly included libraries (e.g., 'string') fail to cleanly import:
import-test.py
--------------
import string
print "Stuff"
> bash$ python import-test.py
>
> Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
> Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
> Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
> 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
> Traceback (most recent call last):
> File "import_test.py", line 3, in ?
> import string
> ImportError: No module named string
Now defining the PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH environment variables does
help. The program will succeed, but this manual intervention seems a
little clunky.
> bash$ PYTHONHOME=/cw PYTHONPATH=/cw/lib/python python import-test.py
>
> Stuff
