[Community] Shapely package installation

[Brian Sanjeewa Rupasinghe]

Hi,

I installed shapely 1.2.10.win32.exe (md5) for Python3.2 windows.
However, when i tried to import this package in Python with
(from shapely.geometry import *), it gives an error: ImportError: No module
named geo.
What is this error about?

Cheers, Brian.

Although you can install Shapely under Python 3.x, PyPi[1] indicates
that Shapely 1.2.x depends on Python >=2.5,<3

Most of the geospatial Python software is using Python 2.x

Right, we're not yet testing or deploying Shapely on Python 3 +
Windows. There's probably some non-conforming code in the
shapely.geometry.geo module that prevents its import.
