Thanks for the information.
It looks like I have been chasing a mirage and have wasted great deal of 
time. This is very frustrating because Metis and PyMetis appear to be what 
I need.
I went to https://bitbucket.org/kw/metis-python 
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fbitbucket.org%2Fkw%2Fmetis-python&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHFUt0C8t3-4u2PAKFn-T9qhJLEoQ>
 and 
tried to file a bug report but I am not sure that I succeeded. The website 
is not exactly set up for end users of the products. 
Can you suggest where I might go (as a user) to find help in getting this 
software installed and running in Spyder?
