I installed my BioPython using the Windows installer. Therefore the
NeighborSearch module is not working (requires KDTree). In fact there was no way
during the installation to add this module. 
Can I install the KDTree somehow or I have to reinstall the BioPython using the
source code with uncommenting the KDTree entry?
I'm trying to avoid the installation from the source code.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
