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?

First you will not be installing it in Spyder, you will be installing it on your system where any Python program can reach it.

Second I gave you the instructions for how to install it below.

    Well the below in the documentation is wrong :
    "
    It’s on PyPI, so installation should be as easy as:

    pip install metis
            -or-
    easy_install metis
    "

    There is no actual file on PyPi. To get it to install, I went to(from
    the Download URL on the PyPi page) to here:

    https://bitbucket.org/kw/metis-python/downloads
    <https://bitbucket.org/kw/metis-python/downloads>

    and downloaded the repo, unzipped it and then ran:

    python setup.py install

    If it where me I would go here:

    https://bitbucket.org/kw/metis-python
    <https://bitbucket.org/kw/metis-python>

    and file a bug report

    FYI the last commit to the code was 2013-10-10. so I would not hold out
    great hopes.

    No, because I do not have Metis or Networkx installed.
