[SoaS] Physics and Pippy tests <- SoaS v11 beta 4 : tests with activities INCLUDED in the standard distribution

[Jean THIERY]

Hello Walter,

Yesterday, *Physics* was working fine with your suggestion
to remove the directory
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements
(see below).

Today I tried to run the *Physics* example of *Pippy*.
I got the message « ImportError: cannot import name Physics ».
with the directory
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements
OR with the renamed directory
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements_old

All other Pippy activities in Sections *Graphics* or *Math*
seem to work correctly.

Soon on Internet,

Physics seems to work normally since I have renamed
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements
into
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements____

More precisely:

The "hand icon" now works correctly.

Objects now move if they are not blocked by other objects?

The Physics session is now correctly saved.

NB:

/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements____
seems to be automatically renamed into
/usr/lib/python2.7site-packages/elements
when the computer is restarted !

Thank you for the correction.

I will try to check other problems (see below)
as soon as possible.
