I'm running into import problems trying to create a package that is similiar in layout to the one in the docs described here:
http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc/html/python/techniques.html#python.creating_packages So my package layout is as follows: xyzzy/ __init__.py research/ __init__.py _research.so stats.pyc My __init__.py file contains 2 lines: from stats import * from _research import * With the directory containing 'xyzzy' on my PYTHONPATH, the following occurs: Python 2.4.2 (#2, Nov 3 2005, 11:35:03) [GCC 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-52)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import xyzzy.research Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "xyzzy/research/__init__.py", line 2, in ? from _research import * ImportError: No module named _research Running python with the -vv switch shows python does indeed look at _research.so but does not load it. However if I put the directory containing _research.so on my PYTHONPATH the following command is successful: >>> import _research Thanks for any help you can offer, Marc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
