Support putting Zend_GData in sites/all/libraries

same problem, any answers?

Same problem here also. Can anybody help?

Looks like you didn't install right (or at all) Zend_GData.
Please check the INSTALL instructions of the module, and try again.

Instal.txt:

" Extract the tar archive, and move the subdirectory library/Zend into this directory. For example:
mv ~/downloads/ZendGdata-1.x.x/library/Zend/ /path/to/drupal/modules/video_upload/providers/youtube
replacing 1.x.x with the actual version. The current build has been tested with 1.7.2.
-or-
b) Install the libary somewhere in the existing PHP include_path of the server. "

Actually I already have this installed in: sites/all/libraries/ZendGdata/library/Zend/
http://all.drumi.org/libraries/ZendGdata/ (note that this is a sub-domain pointing to the sites/all dir of another domain)

It should go in all/libraries so:
* other modules can use the same library
* not have to look inside all modules to find;
* monitor new releases & security patches easily;
* Libraries-module preparedness taking care of them
http://drupal.org/project/libraries

Not clear is what path in all/libraries then should be used and conform other modules that need to have it in the same path; think I have used the ZendGdata default dir structure (while that even might change on new releases). Then not clear is if I should remove some surplus files and directories, but suppose they are safe to maintain there.

You say "existing PHP include_path of the server"; I have a host account; how should I do that? Think it is not installed at the server, as I can only find about "Zend Optimizer" in the hoster's help pages.

If it is a real server install, it should never go into the module and not even inside any Drupal path like sites/all/libraries...

=> ?

I agree that this is needed.

I concur. In fact, for 2.x, I'd even be in favor of making that the only way to go.
