[SciPy-dev] scipy cow and proc.py

[Virgilio, Vincent]

Hi Pearu,

I dropped proc.py into scipy/Lib, deleted scipy/MANIFEST, the reran
python2.3 setup.py bdist_rpm --fix-python.

The generated scipy rpm included proc.py, and installed it into the
correct location. I was able to import scipy.proc and use various
functions.

It looks like a success.

Unfortunately scipy.cow still hangs during cow.start(), even with a
machine list of local nodes/ports only. Hm, I had this working some
earlier today . . .

Also, I'm having trouble with scipy in help; I type help(), then scipy,
and get the below traceback. I'm using the latest CVS.

Thanks,

Vince Virgilio
