[Numpy-discussion] problem re-installing my own package

[lorenzo bolla]

I'm having problems re-installing a package of mine, that uses numpy and
scipy.
can it be due to some recent changes in numpy (scons?)

here is the error message I have:

=======================
$ python setup.py install

running scons
