Packages work just fine on the Mac. The folder in which the OpenGL folder
lives should be on sys.path (not OpenGL itself), and the OpenGL folder
*must* contain a __init__.py file (it may be empty, though). It then it
depends on what's in OpenGL or it's __init__.py file whether there is a
submodule called GL...
Does import OpenGL work?
