[yt-users] Error on installation of yt on system python

[Michael Kuhlen]

OK, the updated Ubuntu packages are available. I just tried them out on my
ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS and yt-devel works great. With the stable version (yt) I
get an import error:

In [1]: from yt.mods import *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-1-c31905f7fc2e> in <module>()
----> 1 from yt.mods import *

/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/yt/mods.py in <module>()
     97     GDFStaticOutput, GDFFieldInfo, add_gdf_field
     98
---> 99 from yt.frontends.athena.api import \
    100     AthenaStaticOutput, AthenaFieldInfo, add_athena_field
    101

ImportError: No module named athena.api


This is weird, because when I install that exact same changeset
(329d11eeff22) from source (with python ./setup.py develop
--prefix=$HOME/local) it works just fine. I'll have to investigate. But if
you're ok with using the development package (yt-devel), then you should be
good to go.
