Any reason your project is not easy_installable?

I suspect that "Python 2.3 or later is required." should read
"Python 2.3 to Python 2.7 is required.

PyGUI 2.3 is available:

http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python_gui/

This version works on Snow Leopard with PyObjC 2.3.


What is PyGUI?

Installation to a custom location with

python setup.py install --home=/home/fetchinson/.local

makes GUI un-importable:

[fetchinson@fetch ~]$ python
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Aug 21 2009, 12:23:57)
[GCC 4.4.1 20090818 (Red Hat 4.4.1-6)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.Traceback (most recent call last):

The problem is that some part of the application gets installed to

/home/fetchinson/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/GUI

and some other parts get installed to

/home/fetchinson/.local/lib/python/site-packages/GUI

which makes the install broken. If I move everything from the latter
location to the former, it all works though.

Cheers,
Daniel

/home/fetchinson/.local/lib/python/site-packages/GUI

Which parts get installed in which places, exactly?

I'm puzzled, because I can't see anything in the setup.py
that could result in things getting split up like this.
I'm wondering whether there is some breakage in distutils.

Any reason your project is not easy_installable?

Mainly because I'm not a setuptools user and haven't been
motivated to learn how to do this so far.

I honestly have no idea
