[myhdl-list] Help with initial config of MyHDL on Ubuntu 9.04

[Kevin S. <sta...@gm...>]

Hi,

I can't seem to find anything on what might be going wrong, but I just
installed MyHDL and tried to run a few of the examples.

I went into :

cd myhdl-0.6/example/rs232

and ran:

python test_rs232.py

All of the tests fail, and I get back several errors that look exactly like
this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_rs232.py", line 102, in testCharacterize
    Simulation(self.bench(tx_baud_rate)).run(quiet=1)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/myhdl/_Simulation.py", line
132, in run
    waiter.next(waiters, actives, exc)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/myhdl/_Waiter.py", line 113,
in next
    (repr(clause), type(clause)))
TypeError: yield clause <myhdl._instance._Instantiator object at 0xa1a506c>
has type <class 'myhdl._instance._Instantiator'>

I am not a novice at VHDL, or Python for that matter, but this error message
is confusing because it appears to be complaining about a TypeError, but the
types listed match...

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for anyone who can be of help!

Kevin
