nik2img install with macports python

[Joseph Jira]

Hello:

Since I now have a working Mapnik installation on my Mac, I'd like to try to use nik2img-2_4. 

My installation uses python 2.6 via macports. 

I installed nik2img, but when trying to test my installation ($ which nik2img.py)

I got the error: -bash: nik2img.py: command not found.

How do I get my macports python 2.6 to recognize nik2img?

My apologies for the simple questions, but I am new to this and have difficulties understanding how things connect from program to program.

Did you do?

svn co http://mapnik-utils.googlecode.com/svn/tags/nik2img/0.2.4/ nik2img2_4

cd nik2img2_4

sudo python setup.py install

That likely means that either your python setuptools/distutils setup put the command line script of nik2img in a location that is not on your PATH or the script did not install because you forgot to type 'sudo'.

It should work as long as you follow the above instructions (using easy_install can be trickier because usually non-macports versions hanging around can cause problems).

If re-installing does not fix things, can you paste the output of the 'sudo python setup.py install' command in a reply email?
