I am a newbie to python (not to Mac OS X). I want to install a package (here: blink1) that seemed to be installed, but I cannot use it. Maybe this has to do with several versions on my Mac but still all solutions presented here do not work. Any help is appreciated.
I installed the package via pip:
sudo pip install blink1
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): blink1 in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pyusb>=1.0.0b1 in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pyusb-1.0.0b1-py2.7.egg (from blink1)
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): click in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (from blink1)
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): webcolors in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (from blink1)
Cleaning up...
and then running python gives
Python 2.7.6 (default, Sep 9 2014, 15:04:36)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.39)] on darwin
>>> from blink1.blink1 import blink1
Traceback (most recent call last):
