Hi Sam!

Thanks for your answer!

When you run yt from within the yt-hg directory, paths get confused, particularly with the cython compiled files.  Could you try running from a different directory?  

Maybe it was a combination of these advices that did the trick. Indeed, my last tests were from within yt-hg, but also the build/ directory was owned by 'root' (for reasons I am not able to reconstruct), as I recognized while following your advices...anyway, after I had done both, everything worked! Thanks again!

Cheers

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!
