Question

I want to try python vcs package, but ..

There is Win7 x86 on my comp,
python 2.7 in d:\pyth27 folder.

i downloaded and installed (using command “python.exe my_instfolder\setup.py install”) all dependencies of vcs.
Now I have:

d:\pyth27>python inst\vcs\setup.py install

but when i try to import it, i get:

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import vcs
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named vcs

P.S. auto-installers of python does not work because i’m under corporative proxy with ntlm-authorization

Looks like something went wrong:

warning: install_lib: 'build\lib' does not exist -- no Python modules to install

You have to run setup.py from within the source distribution directory:

cd inst\vcs
d:\pyth27\inst\vcs>python setup.py install

The setup.py script included expect to be able to find files in the current working directory and running the script from outside the directory fails those expectations.
