I think you have your methods mixed up:

You either use the "easy_install" method which downloads all the components you 
need
for you, or you download the zip files and attempt a manual install in which 
case you
run the setup.py files.

You do one or the other, but not both. In either case you need to have 
setuptools (or
preferably Distribute) installed on your computer. 

I think you should grab and install Distribute or Setuptools, and then use the 
easy
install command to get everything you need. Follow the install instructions on 
the
home page.

FYI, Distribute can be found here: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute

Installation instructions can also be found on that page.

I think this could all be dealt with by adding some simple directions on the 
install
steps inside of python-graph-1.6.2.tar.bz2.  You all have designed the install
process really well, but it's not intuitive when you open up 
python-graph-1.6.2.tar.bz2.

I ended up passing arguments to the makefile to get it to install (basically 
trial
and error since I don't know how makefiles work).  Again, the install design 
seems
pretty clean, please just add a couple of lines on how to implement your 
process.

I'm looking forward to using this library.

I'll fix the docs. Thank you for your report.

Can you confirm that you are now able to install? One good test would be to run 
the
unit-tests. Assuming you installed the whole thing (with DOT dependancies) all 
tests
shoud pass. If you installed everything except DOT then we might expect the 
readwrite
tests to fail.

I've just updated our README to document one installation path, so I'm closing 
this
issue as fixed. If you still have any problems, please contact us at our

Darshan,

Could you refer to the installation instruictions on our project's home page:
http://code.google.com/p/python-graph/

If this fails can you raise a new ticket (since this one is technically closed).

Let me know if you have any more problems and we will be delighted to help.

Try this:

$ sudo easy_install python-graph-core

And, optionally:

$ sudo easy_install python-graph-dot
