h1. Install Appion Packages 

 h3. Install the package in _each folder_ with commands like these 

 *TODO: move these into a single installer, ask Jim* 

 <pre> 
 cd /your_download_area/myami/leginon 
 sudo python setup.py install 

 cd ../pyami 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../pyscope 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../sinedon 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../numextension 
 python setup.py build 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../libcv 
 python setup.py build 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../imageviewer 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 cd ../radermacher 
 python setup.py build 
 sudo python setup.py install 
 </pre> 

 h3. python-site-package-path: where the installed python packages went: 

 Python installer put the packages you installed to its site-packages directory. This enable all users on the same computer to access them. The easiest way to find where your installed package is called by python is to load a module from the package using interactive python command lines like this: 

     * Start python command line from shell 
       <pre>> python</pre> 

     * Import a module from the package. Let's try sinedon here. All packages installed through the above setup.py script should go to the same place. 
       <pre>python> import sinedon</pre> 


     * If the module is loaded successfully, call the module attribute __path__ (two underscrolls before "path" and two underscrolls after) will return the location of the module it is loaded from 
 <pre> 
       python> sinedon.__path__ 

       RETURNS, For example, 
       python> <module 'sinedon' from '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sinedon/__init__.pyc'>  
 </pre> 
       In this case, /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ is your python-site-package-path. If you go to that directory, you will find all the packages you just installed.
