[pygtk] installing pygtk on cygwin

[Patty Ackermann]

Thanks so much for responding.

I did a listing on the related gtk packages. It seems everything is
not in the python2.5 directory. Instead they are in the python2.4
directory. Here is my listing:

$ ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
Numeric  Numeric.pth  gtk-2.0  pygtk.pth  pygtk.py  pygtk.pyc  pygtk.pyo

$ ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/

atk.dll.a  dsextras.pyc  gobject.dll.a	pango.dll
atk.la	   dsextras.pyo  gobject.la	pango.dll.a

$ ls /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk
__init__.py   _gtk.dll	  compat.py   glade.dll    keysyms.py
__init__.pyc  _gtk.dll.a  compat.pyc  glade.dll.a  keysyms.pyc

If a python version mismatch is the problem, how can I obtain the
appropriate packages for python2.5?
So in your case, you just had to include the directories you mentioned
in sys.path, and everything imported successfully ("import gtk",
"import pygtk")?

Thanks a bunch,
Patty

Also, please be more specific; I still don't know how you are trying to import pygtk. It's best to simply copy and paste your commands and the output so we know exactly what's going on.
