[pymvpa] Fail to install upstream/0.6.0.dev inavirtualenv(Neuro Debian)

[Hiroyuki AKAMA]

Hi

I am now reading enthusiastically "PyMVPA Manual Release 0.5.0 dev" and trying to evaluate some commands found in page 22 using pymvpa-26e856e (installed from pymvpa-26e856e.tar.gz(upstream/0.6.0.dev) downloaded from https://github.com/PyMVPA/PyMVPA).

I am afraid that there are some modules and classes lacking in this version.

In pymvpa-26e856e,
the module mvpa.datasets.splitters doesn't exist (there is no mvpa/datasets/splitters.py) 

In [50]: from mvpa.datasets.splitters import *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
/mnt/host/pymvpa-26e856e/tutorial_data/<ipython console> in <module>()
ImportError: No module named splitters

And there is no TransferError amomg the classes of mvpa.clfs.transerror

In [51]: from mvpa.clfs.transerror import *
In [52]: terr=TransferError(clf)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NameError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
/mnt/host/pymvpa-26e856e/tutorial_data/<ipython console> in <module>()
NameError: name 'TransferError' is not defined

The module mvpa.algorithms.cvtranserror doesn't exist (there is no mvpa/algorithms/cvtranserror.py--only hyperalignment.py is found there.)

It would be much appreciated providing me a help.

The other commands up to p.27 of the manual worked without problem. Is there any way to add them to my environment without reinstalling another version from the begining?

Best wishes
