ImportError: No module named ply.lex

[NeroBurner]

after getting the dependencies right (gettext) I was able to install the tarbal from https://launchpad.net/wiican/0.3/0.3.1 without errors.

when I try to start wiican (either with 'wiican' or 'wiican -f "%F"') I get the following message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/wiican", line 35, in <module>
    from wiican.defs import *

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wiican/mapping/validator.py", line 27, in <module>
    import ply.lex as lex
ImportError: No module named ply.lex

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04

Well there's another dependency you must match: PLY (or python-ply as the package it's named in debian based distributions like Ubuntu).

In order to making easier for you to install every dependency, please refer to the provided INSTALL file where you will find all the current dependencies:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/wiican/tree/INSTALL

¿Did you know getdeb people packaged wiican-0.3.1? Maybe you'll find more convenient to install wiican-0.3.1 through debian packages:
