[Numpy-discussion] 1.4.0 installer fails on OSX 10.6.2

[neil weisenfeld]

Hi all,

I'm having an odd problem with the package installer for numpy 1.4.0.
It complains:

numpy 1.4.0 can't be installed on this disk. numpy requires System
Python 2.6 to install.


I'm running a stock system with a stock python, so I'm not sure why
the test is failing.  Any ideas how to debug this?

Some info:

/usr/bin/python
