[Numpy-discussion] Error installing on amd64 Debian-unstable

[Angus McMorland]

I had no troubles installing numpy and scipy on my 32-bit laptop, but
cannot get numpy to install on my amd64 debian desktop. I've pulled in
the latest svn versions, then run:

$ python setup.py install

Installation seems to run okay (no error messages), but the following
happens:



In [1]: import numpy
import core -> failed:
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/numpy/core/_sort.so: undefined symbol:
PyArray_CompareUCS4
import lib -> failed: module compiled against version 90703 of C-API but
this version of numpy is 90704
import linalg -> failed: module compiled against version 90703 of C-API
but this version of numpy is 90704
import dft -> failed: cannot import name asarray
import random -> failed: 'module' object has no attribute 'dtype'

      6             ('alignment', "Needed alignment for this data-type"),

ImportError: cannot import name add_newdoc



Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers,
