I just wrote a function on Python. Then, I wanted to make it module and install on my Ubuntu 11.04. Here is what I did.

All was going fine. But, later I wanted to use the module importing it on my code.
I got import error: ImportError: No module named ‘——-‘

PS. I searched over google and didn’t find particular answer. Detailed answer will be much appreciated.

Most installation requires:

sudo python setup.py install

Otherwise, you won’t be able to write to the installation directories.

I’m pretty sure that (unless you were root), you got an error when you did

python2.7 setup.py install
