[Python.NET] importing eggs. does pythonnet not use respect the easy-install.pth file?

[John Burkhart]

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]
