    Do a pycon talk! I'd definitely be interested.

    Great work.

    I just downloaded the tarball for 2.6b1, compiled in on a macbook pro (10.5.3) and tried the clustered server sample but didn't get very far.. are you sure it's in there? :P I'm probably missing something here..

    $ python2.6
    Python 2.6b1 (r26b1:64398, Jun 20 2008, 00:33:25)
    [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import multiprocessing
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    ImportError: No module named multiprocessing

    I hope not! I did all the heavy lifting on my macbook pro, so I just downloaded the src tarballs (I've been running off of trunk) and I'm checking it now.

    Ok, so I double-checked the source tarball, I unpacked it and did the following - "./configure && make" after that, I fired up the python.exe executable in the build directory:


    woot:Python-2.6b1 jesse$ ./python.exe
    Python 2.6b1 (r26b1:64398, Jun 19 2008, 20:25:19)
    [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5484)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import multiprocessing
    >>> dir(multiprocessing)
    ['Array', 'AuthenticationError', 'BoundedSemaphore', 'BufferTooShort', 'Condition', 'Event', 'JoinableQueue', 'Lock', 'Manager', 'Pipe', 'Pool', 'Process', 'ProcessError', 'Queue', 'RLock', 'RawArray', 'RawValue', 'Semaphore', 'TimeoutError', 'Value', '__all__', '__author__', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__version__', '__warningregistry__', '_multiprocessing', 'active_children', 'allow_connection_pickling', 'cpu_count', 'current_process', 'freeze_support', 'get_logger', 'log_to_stderr', 'os', 'process', 'sys']
    >>>

    So, I think it may be something in the compile step failing for you, or something else entirely. If you want, you can email me at jnoller at gmail dot youknowwhat.

    Getting the same results on amd64 ubuntu:

    ~$ python
    Python 2.6b1 (r26b1:64398, Jun 19 2008, 07:34:18)
    [GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import multiprocessing
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    ImportError: No module named multiprocessing
    >>>

    Perhaps it's related to the fact I have multiple Python interpreters installed (2.3 till 3.0)? I'll see if I can debug the issue and otherwise I'll send you that email. Thanks!

    Yup, someone filed it last night and added a patch to the tracker. Sorry about the problems - I tend to run from subversion rather than doing any sort of make install step
