That means Python is unable to see the files in Wrapping\Python.
Exactly why that happens is unclear to me.  What happens if you try
this on the Python interpreter (IDLE will do fine too):

>>> import sys
>>> print sys.path

You might also want to run "python setup.py install".

Hmm, that seems to imply that your Python installation (not related to
VTK) is somehow broken.  If python is unable to import the os module
something is seriously wrong.  I'd recommend that you get that working
first and then get to debugging the 'import vtk' problem.  Also,
giving us the exact error messages you get would be useful.
