</div>have you downloaded the tutorial dataset as described in<br>

from<br>

?<br>
<br>
make sure it was extracted and available in the path from your current<br>
directory (below it seeks it under data/ right?):<br>

</div>well -- tutorial data is not packaged within pymvpa, and should be<br>
shipped separately. In NeuroDebian we have a dedicated package for it:<br>
python-mvpa2-tutorialdata<br>

</div>Great -- that is the way we teach courses on PyMVPA and advise our users<br>
to proceed with empowering their scientific environments (for PyMVPA or<br>
not)<br>

</div>so you should be all set I guess, right?<br>
