Re: [ros-users] Pyyaml using easy_install on Mac OS X

I installed py26-yaml and tried easy_install again..no luck same error.

These problems are usually related to confusion between the version of

"which python" gives me /usr/bin/python and not "/opt/local/bin". How can I
make it so that it looks at /opt/local/bin?

Thanks,
