Difficulty installing PyEnchant module on a Mac using Python 2.7
import, installation, pyenchant, python, python-module
Solution
Installing enchant first worked for me
brew install enchant
Problem
I'm having trouble getting a Python module called PyEnchant to install on my Mac. I am using Python 2.7. When I open up and run the pyenchant setup.py file I get the following error message: ``` Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/Python 2.7/pyenchant-1.6.5/setup.py", line 195, in <module> import enchant File "/Applications/Python 2.7/pyenchant-1.6.5/enchant/__init__.py", line 90, in <module> from enchant import _enchant as _e File "/Applications/Python 2.7/pyenchant-1.6.5/enchant/_enchant.py", line 133, in <module> raise ImportError("enchant C library not found") ImportError: enchant C library not found ``` I have tried running the .dmg file that is available on the pyenchant website. The installation processes proceeds without any error messages but, once it completes, I am still unable to import pyenchant into Python, nor can I find the installed software anywhere in Finder. I also tried to use the .egg installer, which opened up a Python window with the letters "PK" written at the top in black capitals. I don't know what this means. As you can probably tell I am not an experienced Python user so any help on this is greatly appreciated.
