• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sebastian Pipping 2010-04-08 23:11:12 UTC]

# metagen
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/metagen-2.6", line 22, in <module>
    import metagenerator
ImportError: No module named metagenerator

[Comment 1 Sebastian Pipping 2010-04-09 13:38:27 UTC]

I modified

  import metagenerator

to

  print '\n'.join('- %s' % e for e in sys.path)
  import metagenerator

resulting in this output:

# metagen -m
- /usr/bin
- /usr/lib/python26.zip
- /usr/lib/python2.6
- /usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2
- /usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/metagen-2.6", line 23, in <module>
    import metagenerator
ImportError: No module named metagenerator

I'll migrate it to

  import metagen.metagenerator

For that to work I'll rename metagen.py to main.py.
Having a file metagen/metagen.py seems to be trouble, anyway.
