[reportlab-users] problem running test

[Chris Africa]

Okay, I found the problem - two, actually.

First, I used the default Fink install, which split the reportlab 
installation for some reason
	/sw/lib/python2.3/site-packages/reportlab
	/sw/lib/python2.3/reportlab
I copied as much as I could into the site-packages subdirectory, 
because they could not be found in the other directory

Second, I needed to use /sw/bin/python2.3 instead of python.

Most of the tests work now, but 5 of them still do not. I guess I'll 
track them down as I can. I'm still baffled why the Fink install did 
not work. Fink is usually pretty reliable.

Thank you for your help. Have a nice day!
