This is my current work-around ## Seems to be a required hack for pythonnet if 'pythonnet' in sys.executable: try: import site site.addsitedir(r'C:\Python27\lib\site-packages') except: print sys.path On Fri, Aug 23, 2013 at 12:51 PM, John Burkhart wrote:

Hello,

I have a pythonnet installation that works fine for the most part. However, whenever I try to import a module that was built with easy_install, I have to explicitly add the full egg path to the sys.path variable. Does pythonnet not respect the easy-install.pth file?

[code]

...

...

...

import south Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named south import sys sys.path.append(r'C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\south-0.8.2-py2.7.egg') import south

import openpyxl Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named openpyxl

sys.path.append(r'C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\openpyxl-1.6.1-py2.7.egg')

...

import openpyxl

[/code]

My easy-install.pth file contains:

[code] import sys; sys.__plen = len(sys.path) ./python_distutils_extra-2.37-py2.7.egg ./openpyxl-1.6.1-py2.7.egg ./south-0.8.2-py2.7.egg import sys; new=sys.path[sys.__plen:]; del sys.path[sys.__plen:]; p=getattr(sys,'__egginsert',0); sys.path[p:p]=new; sys.__egginsert = p+len(new) [/code]
