[Numpy-discussion] numpy easy_install fails for python 3.2

[Matthew Brett]

Hi,

I can imagine that this is low-priority, but I have just been enjoying
pytox for automated virtualenv testing:

http://codespeak.net/tox/index.html

which revealed that numpy download-build-install via easy_install
(distribute) fails with the appended traceback ending in "ValueError:
'build/py3k/numpy' is not a directory".

easy_install for pythons 2.5 - 2.7 work fine.

Best,

Matthew
