[SciPy-user] numpy test fails

[Steve Schmerler]

I've already posted this on the numpy list (for numpy 1.0b2.dev3007) but 
the same problem is there in 1.0b3.dev3027 (I'm running Python 2.3.5 on 
Debian testing):

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#
numpy.test(5,5)

[.....]
check_2D_array (numpy.lib.tests.test_shape_base.test_vsplit) ... ok
check_0D_array (numpy.lib.tests.test_shape_base.test_vstack) ... ok
check_1D_array (numpy.lib.tests.test_shape_base.test_vstack) ... ok
check_2D_array (numpy.lib.tests.test_shape_base.test_vstack) ... ok
check_2D_array2 (numpy.lib.tests.test_shape_base.test_vstack) ... ok

======================================================================
ERROR: check_ascii (numpy.core.tests.test_multiarray.test_fromstring)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/numpy/core/tests/test_multiarray.py", 
line 120, in check_ascii
     a = fromstring('1 , 2 , 3 , 4',sep=',')
ValueError: don't know how to read character strings for given array type

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 481 tests in 1.703s

FAILED (errors=1)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#

Full logfile is attached. The scipy test runs fine.

BTW, I shouldn't worry about the "Warning: No test file found in ..." 
messages, right?

Random number generation is the art of producing pure gibberish as 
quickly as possible.
