I tried to build PyGui and I got..
% python setup.py build
<snip>
copying GUI/Gtk/Geometry.py -> build/lib/GUI/Gtk
copying GUI/Gtk/ScrollBars.py -> build/lib/GUI/Gtk
package init file 'GUI/Generic/__init__.py' not found (or not a regular
file)
package init file 'GUI/Mac/__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file)
package init file 'GUI/Gtk/__init__.py' not found (or not a regular file)
And sure enough, those files don't exist. Ideas?
