I've tried install fapws3 from both PIP and compiling from source. It does not work.

This is on both Fedora and Amazon EC2 using Python 2.7.

Update - compiling from source works. I must not have closed my terminal or something. So the PIP version needs to be updated.

Nice to see it works. Such troubles are strongly linked to your system and the way packages (and libraries) are managed.

I agree - the way packages are installed via PIP and able to go to multiple locations (lib / lib64, python2.7 / python3.4, site-packages / dist-packages) is very confusing and probably a source of this headache.

That being said, other packages just seem to "work" when installed via PIP. I don't feel comfortable using a system which does not work unless installed from source. PIP installs should work, do you not agree?
