I am trying to get a simple Blaze example, working on Ubuntu, inside an Anaconda installation (Python 3.3).

import blaze
from blaze import array
from datashape import dshape

# array creation
arr1 = array(3.142)
arr2 = array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
print(arr1)
print(arr2)

But running gives me this error:

  import blaze
  File "/root/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/site-packages/blaze/__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
    from . import catalog
  File "/root/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/site-packages/blaze/catalog/__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
    from . import catalog_config
  File "/root/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/site-packages/blaze/catalog/catalog_config.py", line 6, in <module>
    from .catalog_dir import is_abs_bpath, CatalogCDir
  File "/root/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/site-packages/blaze/catalog/catalog_dir.py", line 5, in <module>
    from .catalog_arr import load_blaze_array
  File "/root/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/site-packages/blaze/catalog/catalog_arr.py", line 9, in <module>
    from datashape.type_equation_solver import matches_datashape_pattern
ImportError: No module named 'datashape.type_equation_solver'

However, I am able to import datashape, using 

python -c "import datashape"

And when I try to conda install <pkgname>, I get that the dependencies are satisfied. I think that this is related to this question, but I find that advice impenetrable.

Any help is appreciated.

The particular error you're getting looks like it's from blaze being built from a more recent checkout than datashape. If you update both of them to the latest master from github, the blaze import should work.

Make sure there's no file or directory named blaze under your current working directory.
