Hi All,

I had a question regarding installing packages that I posted a couple of days ago. But I'm re-sending the question again.. this time with output so that it is clearer.

I am unable to install libraries using 'python setup.py install'

Say that I'm installing a package "kando". I extract it and I'm currently in its directory:

Output to dir:
dir
      11357    Aug 12 20:43:46 2011  COPYING.txt
       2769    Aug 12 20:46:34 2011  PKG-INFO
       1490    Aug 12 20:39:31 2011  README.txt
         56    Aug 05 20:06:46 2011  kando
       6362    Aug 12 20:35:23 2011  kando.py
        868    Oct 20 17:48:00 2011  setup.py

Next, I try and install kando and this is what I get:

python setup.py install
file kando.py (for module kando) not found
file kando.py (for module kando) not found
error: file '/var/sysmgr/vsh/kando' does not exist
Thu Oct 20 18:35:01 UTC 2011
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_scripts

I guess the installer is not looking in the right path for the files to be installed as it cannot find kando.py although I can see it in the output of dir. This is not specific to just kando. I have tried installing arithmetic-0.5 and other packages.
Can you please tell me how I can change the search path of the installer?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
San
