I've been following the installation procedure for Mac OS X Leopard here: 
http://www.scipy.org/Installing_SciPy/Mac_OS_X
I'm using the Apple python installation and the svn numpy as on the page.

After the build line in the link above completes,
scipy.test(1,10)
reported that the nose package was missing, so I installed it.  Now I'm left
with the following error from scipy.test(1,10):

-> import scipy
-> scipy.test(1,10)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/scipy/testing/nosetester.py", line
115, in test
    argv = self._test_argv(label, verbose, extra_argv)
  File "/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/scipy/testing/nosetester.py", line 98,
in _test_argv
    raise TypeError, 'Selection label should be a string'
TypeError: Selection label should be a string


Any ideas?
