[MOAB-dev] PyMOAB

[Vijay S. Mahadevan]

Hi Kevin,

When you configure MOAB, it should generate a setup.py file (note
there is no *.in at the end). This should have the right data
populated into it as needed during configuration. You can just do a
regular make && make install after which all PyMOAB libs should be
available from your prefix path under $prefix/lib/$PYTHON_VERSION..

Let us know if that workflow is helpful.

Best,
Vijay

PyMOAB isn't importable in python, and there is only a setup.py.in file, not a setup.py file. When I try to run setup.py.in, I get the error "No such file or directory: '@abs_builddir@/pymoab'". I'm sure this is some mistake on my part, but I can't figure this out. Could you advise on how I can get PyMOAB set up?
