Import error when importing from skimage.transform

[Juan Nunez-Iglesias]

This usually has to do with an incorrect build of scikit-image. Can you
tell us how you "reinstalled" scikit-image? My guess is that you either:

- did not actually compile the Cython files (pyx -> c -> so), or
- compiled in-place but did not install to your Python environment, or
- compiled and installed to Python environment but running from
scikit-image source directory, which often causes Python's import machinery
to get confused.

If you can give us more details about your Python install and how you're
running your notebook, we might be able to help diagnose the problem!

One nice trick to do is:

>>> import skimage
>>> skimage

The output should show you *which* skimage file you are loading when
importing.

Juan.
