[Numpy-discussion] Problem with importing numpy in Ubuntu

[Robert Faryabi]

I can see the numpy now, but I have the problem with a shared library.
Here is the error

>>> import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/__init__.py", line 130, in
<module>
    import add_newdocs
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/add_newdocs.py", line 9, in
<module>
    from lib import add_newdoc
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/lib/__init__.py", line 4, in
<module>
    from type_check import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/lib/type_check.py", line 8,
in <module>
    import numpy.core.numeric as _nx
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/core/__init__.py", line 5, in
<module>
    import multiarray
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so:
undefined symbol: _PyUnicodeUCS4_IsWhitespace


Do you have any idea? It seems that the UCS4 and UCS2 are related to 16 and
8 bit unicode.
