When running ffc under Cygwin, I get the following error:

I have installed ufc.
Do you get the same error if you just write a simple Python script
test.py containing only the line
from ufc import *
and then run it by python test.py?
The problem is that Cywgin does not have
/usr/local/lib/python2.X/site-packages
in the path.
Is there a reason why ufc installs under /usr/local/lib/python2.x, while
other FEniCS packages install under /usr/lib/python2.x?
I don't know, let's ask the other guys.
Can we change the default location for the installation of UFC to
/usr?
Garth, in the meantime, just change the variable PREFIX in the UFC
Makefile to /usr. The installation is just a single header file (and
some Python modules) so we have a very simple Makefile instead of a big
build system like scons, autotools etc.
In my opinion, default install prefix should _never_ be /usr unless the
native package system of your platform is used. Installing directly in /usr
tends to be messy. There is a reason for the PREFIX possibility, use it if
you deliberately want to mess thing up. /usr/local is the way to go.
Just my 2øre.
