[yt-users] ImportError: No module named amr_utils

[Florian Bürzle]

Hi Cameron!

Thank for your answer! 

Indeed, I had installed yt using the installer script before, and it worked nicely. However, my intention to install yt from the repo was to somehow 'unclutter' my hard disk as it is not my philosophy to have the same software packages or libraries installed several times...sometimes this is unavoidable (MacPorts!) but I just want to keep these exceptions as rare as possible :)

I seem to recall that h5py is broken in EPD, which isn't creating the error that you're experiencing here, but it will cause problems later on in your use of yt.  Anyway, I don't know the reason for your specific troubles here, I can only recommend what I did to fix this issue: install yt using the installer script.  The installer script will download and create a new instance of python 2.7, along with all of the yt dependencies.  You should then be able to use that new python and yt with no problems.  Of course, I realize that it would be nice to have yt run within your existing python installation, so perhaps one of the other users can comment on why it isn't working here.  Good luck!
