Hi all,
I am a bit puzzled with the test suite of ObsPy. Maybe someone has a clearer picture and can make me understand better.
I ran the test suite by running obspy-runtests-2.7 (Macports version) and all looks okay:

petr% obspy-runtests-2.7

Hi Petr,
that appears to be some kind of path issue. Please check the following things:
1. Do you have more than one version of ObsPy/Python/... installed and paths are somehow mangled?
2. Make sure that libgfortran is available and can be found. LD_LIBRARY_PATH can help.
3. obspy-runtests and python should of course refer to the same installation.
Hope it helps!

Hi Petr,

Well there are more version of Python: The original ones of the system, and the ones installed through the MacPorts. I usually use only the ones from Macports (versions 2.7 I my default working version, 2.6 and 3.2 are installed as well for testing). ObsPy is installed against Macports versions 2.7 and 2.6, the second again only for testing; Path points to /opt/local/bin which would expose the Macports versions;
2. Make sure that libgfortran is available and can be found. LD_LIBRARY_PATH can help.
The cause of the import error is clear to me. This is a problem with linking during the build of the libtaup.so library. In the context of MacPorts, it is not strait forward to fix this. It was not a problem some time ago, but MacPorts changed the approach compilers are selected by on the various platforms.
3. obspy-runtests and python should of course refer to the same installation.
I just wonder that this problem (import error) got unnoticed running the test. The obspy-runtests-2.7 is relative to the Macports Obspy installation against Python 2.7 from Macports. So the test and the manual import should run the same instance of Obspy.
I would expect the runtest to fail as well, but it does not. That is why I missed the problem with the libfortran library, when the compiler selection was changed. But I still have not found any explanation why the runtest completes successfully.
