py27-astropy @1.3.1 - import fails

[mfacorcoran]

I just updated astropy to version 1.3.1 and I get the following ImportError:

In [3]: import astropy
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-3-d192094ef7da> in <module>()
----> 1 import astropy

/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/astropy/__init__.py in <module>()
    117
    118
--> 119 from . import config as _config
    120
    121 class Conf(_config.ConfigNamespace):

ImportError: cannot import name config

apparently the file

/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/astropy/astropy.cfg does not have world read access (only root read access). Changing this file to world read access seems to have fixed the problem.

There seems to be a similar problem with the python 3.6 version of astropy as well

In the future, please fill in the Port field and Cc the port maintainers (port info --maintainers py27-astropy), if any.

The py35 version looks good.

This was a bug in the upstream Astropy 1.3.1 release, and it was fixed in the Astropy 1.3.2 release.

See:

• ​https://trac.macports.org/ticket/53865
• ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/402

So Mike, please update to the latest Astropy version 1.3.2 which is in Macports.

Suggest to close this issue now.
