Thanks Sean,
Firstly sorry about the out of context letter. I know it's been a while
since I asked the question... To refresh briefly, I've gotten PyGreSQL
installed on Mac OS X using MacPorts but the MacPorts install is against
python 2.4 and is in a non-standard directory. To use it I'm going to
have to make a bunch of changes to my environment that I'd rather not
do. I would like to have a copy of PyGreSQL installed against the Mac OS
X default version of python (2.5). Gratefully OS X includes easy_install
so I:
Followed the setup instructions to build a local python package
directory.
Used easy_install to download and build PyGreSQL.
I expected to get a directory:
~/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/PyGreSQL
with the standard:
__init__.py...
files. Instead I have:
~/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/PyGreSQL-3.8.2... .egg file
I'm not sure what to do with this.
python
>>> import PyGreSQL
Throws an ImportError. Am I missing a step somewhere?
