Hello  
I am trying to write my own block. I wrote the required files and then  
worked the below statements sequentially in the terminal  
-bootstrap  
-configure  
-make  
-make check  
then at the end I get

- ran 2 tests in 0.004s
- OK
- PASS: run\_tests
- 1 test passed  
I saved the files related to this block on desktop and called it  
my\_block.  
But now I am trying to call this block to python but i can’t. Every time  
i get en error ‘no such module is defined’.  
What can i do now? Is there any thing i missed?  
Thanks your supports.

Try running “sudo make install” after make check?
