Unable to get it working on osx 10.9.3

[Ola Lundén]

After installing I try to run it in python terminal:

I've got the problem too, with the same version of OS X.

After a bit of investigation, it seems that TerminalNotifier.py does not find the terminal-notifier executable, because the vendor directory isn't copied in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pync

[rbelouin@mufasa ~]% ll /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pync

Hope that will help.

I fixed it the hard way:

pip install pync
git clone git://github.com/SeTeM/pync.git

# I installed my python stack with Homebrew
cp -R pync/pync/vendor /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pync

# I guess you should copy the vendor folder to the following destination, for a "traditional" pip installation
sudo cp -R pync/pync/vendor /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages

Guys, I think you have to fix your setup.py ;)

Seams to work but I will look for other solutions since I was looking for something that I could distribute as a requirement to my own script.

NB: I'm not the author of pync, nor a maintainer. Not sure that closing the issue will help the authors fix it :)

[Ola Lundén]

I agree totally My finger must have slipped :)

@ollu, @rbelouin sorry, guys, I have no idea how to fix it. If you know solution for this issue, create PR, please.
