Hi Chris,

Once you switch the install flag and re-run

python2.6 setup.py build_ext -i

you should then be able to do:

python2.6 -c "import yt.utilities.libconfig_wrapper"

If there's an import error, it has failed. I shoudl also have
mentioned, it's useful to know what kind of system (or if it's a
supercomputer resource) it succeeds/fails on.

Thanks, and sorry for the confusion,

Matt
