installing pynifti under EPD

Sorry if this issue is slightly tangential to the interests of this group but I couldn't think of any place else to ask (e.g. I don't think the pynifti guys have a list). I'd like to read some analyze image files (Mayo clinic medical image file format) into numpy arrays and process them. This works fine in linux but I'm currently trying to use Enthought's EPD distribution under OS X (Python 2.5.4 |EPD_Py25 4.3.0| (r254:67916, May 17 2009, 20:07:12)) and having no luck installing pynifti to read the analyze files. I downloaded and tried to install pynifti (pynifti-0.20090303.1) using the standard distutils mechanism but when I import nifti I got errors saying some of the symbols in _clib.so couldn't be found. So I downloaded and installed nifticlib-1.1.0 but that didn't help, I tried to copy the various nifticlib libraries into obvious places to no avail and there isn't much in the way of documentation on this so I was wondering if anyone had the magic incantation for installing pynifti under EPD on OS X; sorry again if this is slightly off topic. -- Karl Young

Oops, missed that; thanks Robert and sorry for the extra bandwidth.
