I tried to do "sudo easy_install feedparser", which worked. I can "import feedparser" from the python shell, but not from sage unless I explicitly add it to my path.
I also did exactly as you did and compared the paths; as per request: sage: import sys sage: sys.path ['/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/sympy/plotting', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/sympy/thirdparty/pyglet', '', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/ bin', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/SQLAlchemy-0.4.3-py2.5.egg', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/ bin', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python25.zip', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/plat-linux2', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/lib-tk', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/lib-dynload', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages', '/home/mats/install/sage-3.0.2-suse-x86_64-bit-x86_64-Linux/local/lib/ python2.5/site-packages/IPython/Extensions', '/home/mats/.sage/ipython'] # I took the liberty of inserting linebreaks for readability: >>> import sys >>> sys.path [ '', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c7- py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/TurboGears-1.0.4.4- py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/TurboKid-1.0.4-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/TurboJson-1.1.2-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/TurboCheetah-1.0-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/simplejson-1.7.4-py2.5-linux- x86_64.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/ RuleDispatch-0.5a0.dev_r2306-py2.5-linux-x86_64.egg', '/usr/local/ lib64/python2.5/site-packages/PasteScript-1.6.2-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/FormEncode-0.9-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/DecoratorTools-1.7- py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/configobj-4.5.2-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/CherryPy-2.3.0-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/kid-0.9.6-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Cheetah-2.0.1-py2.5-linux- x86_64.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/ PyProtocols-1.0a0dev_r2302-py2.5-linux-x86_64.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/ python2.5/site-packages/PasteDeploy-1.3.1-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Paste-1.6-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Pylons-0.9.6.1-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Mako-0.1.8-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/nose-0.10.1-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/decorator-2.2.0-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Beaker-0.7.5-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/WebHelpers-0.3.2- py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Routes-1.7.1-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/SQLAlchemy-0.4.4-py2.5.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5- linux-x86_64.egg', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/ feedparser-4.1-py2.5.egg', '/home/mats/install/pythonPackages', '/usr/lib/python25.zip', '/usr/lib64/python2.5', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode', '/usr/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages' ] Best wishes, Mats On Jun 9, 4:01 am, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Jun 8, 1:57 pm,Mats<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hello, > > Hi, > > > I just installed a package using easy_install.
