[Numpy-discussion] Numpy install problems

[Michael D. Risser]

When attempting to install Numeric 17.0 with Python 1.5.2 and Distutils 1.0
on Red Hat 7.0, I get the following error after issuing the command 'python
setup.py install'

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "setup.py", line 15, in ?
    vs = map(string.atoi, v.groups())
AttributeError: 'None' object has no attribute 'groups' 

This error occurs regardless of whether or not I am root. I have also tried
uninstalling the Red Hat Python packages and installing all from source, but I
get the same error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
