<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi Roberto<br>
<br>
This is one reason why I typically install yt manually using the<br>
system's python installation, instead of running the yt install<br>
script. It's really quite straightforward, just go to $YTDIR/ and do<br>
"python ./setup.py build", followed by "python ./setup.py install<br>
--prefix=$HOME/local", and then make sure that your PYTHONPATH<br>
environment variable includes $HOME/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages.<br>
Of course with this approach you also have to install all the other<br>
yt-dependencies using you system's python (using apt-get,<br>
easy_install, pip, or whatever). If you decide to go down this route<br>
you may want to start from scratch with your yt installation, since if<br>
you did run the yt install script then it probably installed all those<br>
packages with the yt-provided python. YMMV.<br>
<br>
Apologies to the yt dev's if I'm giving non-standard recommendations<br>
here, but this works for me.<br>
<br>
